What I hate the most is that silo requires nothing, absolutely nothing! Not micro, not macro, this is not an effort for the player, he did not show tactical wisdom, he does 0 work, a couple of clicks, she just fucking shoots a rocket and causes incredible damage to the economy, completely destroying logistics.

Why is there no anti-napalm rocket for 300 metal to ensure safety ?!

I think by now we can replace izirayd posts with gpt-2

Watching the replay, Godde had 3/4 of the map when he got the silo. So he only needed to make 1/4 cost to be even. Silo's purpose is to end stalemates and bring the game to an end, which id did.

The simplest way would be to sink the aegis into the ground. Around 4 presses of V should do it (when placing a building, press B to turn on auto-terraform. then use C and V to adjust the height. it will create a terraform order the exact size of the building's footprint and queue the building to be placed after the terraform is done). This protects the Aegis by putting it outside of Eos splash range, or at least far enough from anywhere you can hit with eos that the damage isn't enough to kill the aegis (eos has a VERY small area of effect). this forces the opponent to stun the aegis with a shockley in order to kill it (shockley has a VERY high trajectory, a good area-of-effect and no splash damage falloff so it's very hard to stop shockleys with terraform)
TL:DR: use wall/pit to block eos
