so the basic premise is that instead of clean energy like fusion or wind, the units run on fossil fuels. to get oil you would either get geo spots or mexes for oil production, which would power your units. there could be oil refineries that youd have to build in order to actually use the oil. extra idea, units could always have the smoke coming off of them to represent exhaust. thoughts?

Could be interesting as well if it sorta changed the unit vibe by making stuff slower and tougher.

Wonder if units would have their own internal 'tank'

Regardless, would need someone to actually begin working/testing such a idea.

1. smoke particles lag the game
2. spring is able to make units require energy to fire and move
3. changing building names into refinery and oil pump-jack is no problem

This kind of game already exists since 1997 know as Krush Kill 'n' Destroy (by Melbourne House) except units do not smoke from exhaust.
KKnD is currently the closest to your idea, AFAIK.

Oil is used also in Warzone 2100 which is nowadays free and open source known as "Warzone 2100 project".
Reffineries are not used however in WZ.
