@Conflict Engine
The Conflict Engine and Holy Circuit Commanders see one another for the first time in centuries. As their armies grow this war will inevitably turn hot.



It is now Unification's turn.

Spoiler: Costs of Buildables and Commander Info (click to show/hide)

 ARMY MANAGEMENT:

COMMANDER:

The center of every Faction, the Commander is the only unit is not expendable in your quest for domination. It passively produces five Metal and three Energy per turn, has an Attack and Defence of thirty, can construct two Facilities per turn and moves one Sector per turn.

However, if the Commander is ever destroyed, every unit in its Faction will immediately shut down as their stream of orders is severed. All units and facilities will be destroyed and that Faction will be no more.

There are three types of unit besides the Commander:

Fabricator
Costs 4 metal. Can build all Facilities like a Commander, but only one per turn. No Attack. 3 Defence. Moves 1 sector per turn.

KBot
Costs 1 metal. 1 Attack. 1 Defence. Moves 2 sectors per turn.

Tank
Costs 3 metal. 2 Attack. 5 Defence. Moves 1 sector per turn.

BASE MANAGEMENT:

All Facilities require Metal to build and Energy to run. If you ever have a higher Energy requirement than you have Energy supplied, all Facilities will shut down until the issue is rectified. Units are unaffected by such Blackouts. Unless specific situations state otherwise, there is no limit on the number of Facilities that can be built in a single Sector.

Facilities may be built over multiple turns, so long as at least one Metal is spent in construction per turn.

Mine
Produces 1 Metal in standard sectors or 2 Metal in Rich sectors per turn. Limited to three per sector. Costs 2 Metal. Requires 1 Energy.

Generator
Produces 3 Energy. If the Sector contains a Geothermal Vent, the first Generator produces an additional 3 Energy. Costs 2 Metal.

Bot Factory
May produce up to three Kbots or one Fabricator per turn. Costs 8 Metal. Requires 2 Energy.

Vehicle Factory
May produce one Tank or one Fabricator per turn. Costs 8 Metal. Requires 2 Energy.

Turret
10 Attack, 10 Defence. Costs 4 Metal. Requires 1 Energy.

Storage
Allows for stockpiling of 20 Metal. Emergency protocols ensure that the contents of a Storage are teleported to another Storage with space in the case of Facility destruction. Only Metal over the capacity will be lost. Costs 5 Metal. Requires 1 Energy.

Missile Silo
Can house a single Nuclear Warhead, taking 3 turns and requiring 20 Energy per turn to build. Nuclear Missiles can be fired at any Sector, and will destroy all Facilities and Units within (except the Commander). Limited to one per Sector. Costs 100 Metal. Requires 5 Energy.

Bot Factory produces 1 Fabricator, Commander moves to E7 and build a Mine, and start construction of a Bot Factory

@Unification
After marching across the bottom of the channel, the Commander steps foot on the Pangaea contested by the other two Factions and a beachhead is prepared.

Turn 6

Fact of the Day: The only thing that will stop your Fabricator from building Turrets in the middle of the enemy base is getting shot before it gets there.

[evictedSaint]

Uh oh.

[Happerry]

I'd suggest building at least one turret, Saint, or else you're gonna have a real bad time.

[evictedSaint]

When combat occurs, does it go until one side dies? Or is it just one "round" of combat? 

If it's the former then I should be alright.  If it's the later...well, gg.

[Kashyyk]

Combat is one "round" per involved player turn. So a fight between Conflict Engine and Holy Circuit will experience two rounds of combat per turn, one after each of those player's turns. If Unification joined in the same brawl, then three rounds will occur per turn.

Specifically, turns are processed as follows:

Movement > Combat > Construction

Thus you will be able to continuously throw units into a never ending grinder. Remember as well the order in which units take damage:

KBots > Tanks > Turrets > Fabricators > Buildings > Commander

So if you have enough chaff in the way, you will always be able to evacuate your Commander out of a dangerous fight.

A final note, whilst KBots can pass through hostile sector to strike deeper in, they will be viable combat targets for any defenses in the intervening sector.

Also also: It's Conflict Engine/Happery's turn.

[Happerry]

...Huh. I thought Saint was going to go before I did, thus the turret remark. Even if it'd be efficient, it'd be a bit lame to just kill him now by dropping the 4 bots and my commander on Saint...

Oh wait no, the Buildings will soak some damage so Saint won't die. How much Defense do buildings have? It doesn't seem to be on the list.

[evictedSaint]

Buildings soak 5 damage each.  Commanders both soak and deal 30 damage.

If you attacked me full-force (your commander and 4 kbots), you'd blow up two buildings and leave me at 6 hp. Your commander would be left at 4 hp - ironically enough, I would only be able to do 3 damage on my following turn without dying myself.

I dunno if there's a way to repair.

[Happerry]

That is a good question. Kashyyk, how does repair work?

[Kashyyk]

I knew there was something I forgot. Let's say a Commander/Fabricator can repair a unit with a build action, spending one metal per damage recovered. Its lossy on everything but Factories, but still useful at times like this.

[Happerry]

The Commander and K-Bot in C3 and the three K-Bots in A3 move to C4.
The Commander builds 2 Turrets in C4.
The Fabricator in D1 moves to B1 and builds a Mine.
The Tank Factory in A3 spends 3 metal to start building a Fabricator.

Can the Commander repair itself or do we need to send a Fabricator over to repair the commander if it gets hurt?

[evictedSaint]

Just so you know, I wouldn't blame you if you OHKO'd me.  This world isn't big enough for the three of us

When does repairing occur? At the beginning of your turn? Or at the end?

[Kashyyk]

Repairing occurs during the construction step, at the end of your turn.

@Happerry: The Commander only has 1 Movement, so cannot reach C4 from C3. Similarly, the Kbots at A3 cannot reach C4 because it is 3 sectors away.

Commanders/Fabricators cannot repair themselves.

...Welp, first major typo of the game. Good thing it didn't go through because it was impossible. I meant C5. ^_^;

The Commander builds 2 Turrets in C5.
The Fabricator in D1 moves to B1 and builds a Mine.
