This guide will go over some common tactics and strategies used when using buildings. (wip)

Economy Buildings

Caretaker bury

The Caretaker is often buried underground when used on the front-lines. You can do this easily using terraform. Doing this protects the caretaker from most enemy units, but it is still able to reclaim and repair. You might do this when there is a large reclaim field but you are unable to safely use constructors or your commander for reclaiming, as they have a much shorter range than the caretaker,


Defensive Buildings

Terraform pillar

You are able to raise small pillars using terraform and then build a defensive structure on them. This is advantageous for a few reasons.

  • Puts them out of range of many raiders.
  • Gives extra range to some structures.

It is most commonly done with the LLT or stardust turret.
