Wealth[edit | edit source]

Wealth is collected by trading and taxation.

Trade[edit | edit source]

  • Starships can be constructed to go out and collect resources from colonies with markets.
  • If they dock at your Commerce Pad, they remit wealth back to you.
  • The amount of wealth they create depends on city development, and the distance between the colony and your citadel.
  • Unfortunately, because they don't believe in trade, the Vidalian Confederacy and G-SALV don't build starships.

Taxation[edit | edit source]

  • Colonies by default generate wealth over time.
  • The Vidalians can choose to co-opt colonies to create other resources instead of Wealth.
  • The Empire gets a taxation boost.

Tools[edit | edit source]

Important for elite units, used heavily in building robots and upgrading structures. Processing Plants can be made to convert half your metal and fuel output into tools.
