So, since my last competition was pretty much a discussion, I'll now close that and move over to this general colony discussion (the others are all specific)

TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO COLONY (and beef burgers)

It's influence, it makes specialized units.

How exactly do you gain influence?

By having units on the field. Even 1 will do.

Influence isn't that useful...it costs 100 to make 1 unit.

Yeah, there should be a way to gain influence more quickly. Maybe if Colony is ever updated...

You'll probably get a max of 1 influence unit a game.
JJ52, don't try capitalist. In the hands of pros it's good, in the hands of newbies it completely fails (or even normal players)
I'm on beatrix, AFK garden.

Um, when I first played it it was version 1.4, than it was version 1.6...

It doesn't update by .01 every time.

And Colony says this is a test run

(GDI JJ change your armatar your confusing me)

You might of been playing earthquake, safe skies, or low tech ernie; otherwise it comes from an arsenal.

Really? I would have thought it would come from a mechanics terminal, seeing that it is an air vehicle. I rarely use outposts, so I don't much go for the arsenals...
