Colony Pod Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

Colony Pod SMAC

Colony Pods are SMAC Units in Firaxis' TBS Game of 1999, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri (SMAC). Colony Pods are vital for base-building, which expands a faction's empire. Colony Pods represent the manpower and resources necessary to build a new base.

At the least, Colony Pods should found colonies on rainy or moist rolling squares. If the square is also a river, all the better. But the best non-resource square on which to found colonies is a flat rainy jungle river square or a rolling rainy jungle river square (both of which yield 3 Nutrient. 1 Mineral and 3 Energy). However, you must appraise the catchment as a whole, not just its center square.
