Description

Ballistic Missile system that can be used to precision hit enemy targets. When placed on a Auxiliary Power socket connected to a team owned building the Missile Silo will become active. Once activated, Targeting units can be build by adding the Missile Silo to your build queue and placed near enemy encampments for maximum devastation.

Characteristics

The Missile Silo is a late-game socket unit that launches a single, heavy hitting missile towards a marker placed by the AirMech that built it.

When first built, you will obtain the Missile Silo (Launcher). After the unit is extracted or deployed, only a Missile Silo (Marker) will be built. However, if all Missile Silo (Launcher) are destroyed on the field, launchers will be built again.

Advantages

• Deals massive damage in a large radius
• Can launch missiles towards any point on a map
• Marker can be reused if a missile has not been fired
• Marker can only be damaged by certain types of damage, including bombs and melee
• Useful for breaking stalemates in the late game.

Disadvantages

• Very expensive, make sure you don't waste your missile
• Long reload time and build times between launches
• Requires a socket to launch missiles
• Deals friendly fire to all units in radius, be careful of where you fire it
• Stationary, enemy can move all units out of the way

Trivia

• The Missile Silo mimics the type of unit in many RTS games that are built to break stalemates or destroy bases
• Markers can be damaged by melee attacks but cannot be targeted by guns
