Description

This large-scale tool is used to shape terrain for terraforming projects. Also useful as a cleanser of obstacles such as pesky enemy units and bases.

Tactics and Strategy

The Starlight creates a MASSIVE beam that shakes the land it hits. This beam will "Walk" to a target... but watch out for friendly fire! Especially if you build it deep in your base!

Few things, if any, can hope to withstand a Starlight's direct onslaught for long. Even a Detriment will melt within mere seconds.

Additional Details

On its own, Starlight is able to shoot its beam only upwards. Then the beam needs to be reflected by Glint, a satellite that allows it to be aimed at ground targets. The satellite is deployed from the top of the Starlight.
