Understand minerals, catalyst, supply and the infrastructure behind your army. See what each structure does and what it unlocks.
Your headquarters, worker producer and initial mineral drop-off point.
Keep workers in production and protect at least one completed headquarters.
Losing your last completed headquarters ends the match. An unfinished replacement does not count.
Full dossier
The main combat branch, producing Guardian tanks, Spearhead anti-armor vehicles and Arrow anti-air escorts.
Establish a frontline, then add armor specialists when the enemy composition calls for them.
Needs a clear exit. A second copy adds another queue but does not count as a different branch.
Full dossier
A stationary ground-defense gun that operates independently once completed.
Attacks: Ground only
Support a defensible entrance or protect a valuable mining route while the army moves.
Cannot attack aircraft. Siege outranges it, and stationary defense delays mobile forces and expansion.
Full dossier
The light production branch for Trackers, Mechanics and Recyclers.
Get early reconnaissance, repair support and later salvage without investing in advanced combat production.
A Recycler also requires a completed Command Center. Keep room for the production exit.
Full dossier
The advanced combat branch for Hammer siege artillery, Disruptor support and Cutter backline firepower.
Break fortified positions, answer enemy control effects or screen a Cutter behind your tanks after researching Specialized Production.
Needs a laboratory, HQ Development, the matching technology and catalyst. Protect the investment.
Full dossier
Researches the technologies that unlock specialized production, logistics and field engineering.
Build it when your basic production is established and you are ready to open a new branch.
Needs HQ Development and catalyst for advanced unlocks. Research requires completed production branches; two identical factories count as one type.
Full dossier
Produces Transports and Bridgelayers for reinforcement routes and river crossings.
Research Logistics after HQ Development and light production.
Needs the specified infrastructure and catalyst. Its units change positioning; neither has a weapon.
Full dossier
Produces Minelayers and Bulwarks for prepared ground and protected advances.
Research Field Engineering after opening two different production branches.
Also requires the Vehicle Factory and laboratory. Mines and shields support an army rather than replacing it.
Full dossier
A dedicated aircraft production branch for Hawk fighters and Ember ground-attack planes.
Open an air route after completing a laboratory and researching Specialized Production through two different basic branches.
Has its own paid queue and needs catalyst. Aircraft cannot capture control points; maintain a ground army and anti-air cover.
Full dossier
An independent, long-range anti-air emplacement available without advanced research.
Attacks: Air only
Cover important infrastructure against aircraft while keeping your mobile army free to move.
Attacks air only. Ground units and siege can attack it unanswered.
Full dossier
Researches three levels of sustained firepower and armor for your combat units.
Defend this investment, then turn a surviving mixed army into a stronger counterattack.
Long, paid research competes with immediate army production and expansion.
Full dossier
Adds five population places when completed; it does not receive harvested cargo.
Build before workers and paid army queues fill your current supply.
Destroyed depots remove capacity. Existing units and paid queues survive, but new orders can be blocked.
Full dossier
Extracts finite catalyst directly at its deposit with up to three assigned workers.
Build on a catalyst deposit in a camp with your completed HQ before investing in advanced technology.
Workers assigned here share the camp mining limit and leave fewer workers on minerals. It is not a mineral drop-off.
Full dossier
An advanced production branch for the Furnace and Operator robots.
Invest after a Vehicle Factory, laboratory and Field Engineering when your firing line needs robotic specialists.
Its development and production cost resources that could otherwise fund your immediate army or expansion.
Full dossier
A hidden, destructible explosive laid by a Minelayer; it is not a worker-built structure.
Place on likely approaches and give it time to arm before the enemy arrives.
Scouts at close range and scans reveal it. It does not block movement and has no friendly fire.
Full dossier
A destructible crossing created by a Bridgelayer over suitable water.
Cross a narrow river or open an unexpected attack route for your ground army.
Both sides can cross. The bridge expires; units still on it need an accessible bank when it disappears.
Full dossier
The heart of a Khar base: produces Harvesters and accepts delivered minerals.
Grow the economy and keep a completed Core safe throughout the match.
Losing your last completed headquarters ends the match. A Core under construction cannot prevent defeat.
Full dossier
The main Khar combat branch, producing Carapaces, Piercers and Stinger anti-air escorts.
Build durable close-range fighters and fast armor hunters for your main army.
Needs direct resonance coverage and room to deploy units. Duplicate chambers do not satisfy a requirement for different branches.
Full dossier
An independent anchor that immediately covers a radius of 640 after completion.
Place your production inside its direct field; overlap anchors to protect an important position.
There is no energy budget. Losing the last covering anchor stops dependent buildings and removes their nodes’ supply contribution.
Full dossier
A stationary ground defense that needs direct coverage from a completed Resonance Source.
Attacks: Ground only
Cover a mining route or the return path of a small raiding group.
Cannot attack aircraft. Losing the last covering anchor stops it; siege can attack from farther away.
Full dossier
The light Khar branch for Prowlers, Connectors and Forming-Chamber-gated Weavers.
Add scouting and recovery; expand into damage-sharing support once your main branch is established.
Needs direct resonance coverage. Producing a Weaver also requires a completed Forming Chamber.
Full dossier
The advanced Khar branch for Thunderer siege, Dampener control and Echocaster chain strikes.
Combine delayed area damage, slowing fields and protected chain fire to create an opening for your assault.
Requires Specialized Production and a completed laboratory. Its specialists need careful positioning.
Full dossier
The Khar research building for advanced combat, movement and field technologies.
Unlock the production branches that answer the army or terrain you have scouted.
Needs direct resonance coverage, HQ Development and the required number of different production branches. Technology alone does not create a producer.
Full dossier
Provides tactical auras and 20 physical supply places inside an active own resonance field, capped by command research.
Combine a completed node with Command Capacity I in the Core before growing beyond the first small group.
Does not extend the field. Destruction or suppression removes its contribution; command research sets the ceiling and supplies no places alone.
Full dossier
Produces Tunnelers and Deceivers for alternative routes and deceptive movements.
Research Logistics after HQ Development and build it with a completed Memory Hall and Core.
Needs direct resonance coverage. Tunnel routes take preparation and decoys do not provide real combat strength.
Full dossier
Produces Rippers and Retuners to disrupt enemy formations and power connections.
Unlock Field Engineering and use the branch to create an opening before a focused attack.
Requires the Forming Chamber, laboratory and direct resonance coverage. Pulls and suppression still need an army to exploit them.
Full dossier
A separate aerial production branch for Hunter interceptors and Sower ground-attack flyers.
Add air mobility after establishing a production branch, an Archive and Specialized Production.
Needs direct resonance coverage and its own production investment. Flyers cannot capture control points or use ground transports and tunnels.
Full dossier
A resonance-dependent anti-air tower that threatens aircraft with delayed area discharges.
Attacks: Air only
Defend your economy and production against air raids without waiting for an Air Chamber or research.
Attacks air only and needs direct resonance coverage. Aircraft can evade its delayed blast; ground attacks require other defenders.
Full dossier
Researches three levels of first-strike power and protection for Khar combat groups.
Invest in a stronger prepared assault while keeping pressure on enemy development.
Needs direct resonance coverage. Research is paid in advance; upgrades do not replace scouting and disengagement.
Full dossier
A worker-operated catalyst extractor built directly on a catalyst deposit.
Add it after the first small raid when you are ready to pay for advanced research.
Requires a local completed HQ and up to three workers. The first basic raid does not need catalyst.
Full dossier
One endpoint of a Tunneler’s linked pair. Its transfer ability sends nearby friendly units to the other mouth.
Select an entrance and use its ability on your nearby squad to transfer it to free ground at the exit.
An unpaired or destroyed endpoint cannot transfer a squad. Cargo slots limit each transfer.
Full dossier
The living headquarters: produces Cultivators and receives harvested minerals.
Keep worker production moving and protect at least one completed Mother Core.
Losing your last completed headquarters ends the match. A growing replacement does not count yet.
Full dossier
The main ground-combat hatchery for Ridgebacks, Acid Spitters and Spinecasters.
Build a frontline, answer enemy armor and add early anti-air without advanced research.
Needs active connected living substrate and a clear exit. Each hatchery has its own paid production queue.
Full dossier
Starts an independent living organism: its active radius grows from 96 to 640 over 20 seconds.
Grow active ground under your first hatchery. At 75% growth the first developed site adds ten supply places.
Separated developed sites support supply and production. Severing a root immediately stops dependent branches; there is no energy budget.
Full dossier
A rooted defense organism dependent on active living substrate that attacks ground enemies near your base.
Attacks: Ground only
Protect an entrance or mineral line while the mobile army is away.
Cannot target aircraft and stops firing outside active living territory. Siege can attack from outside its range.
Full dossier
A light support branch for Prowlers, Menders and Symbionts.
Add reconnaissance and recovery early; unlock Symbionts after completing a War Hatchery.
Needs active connected living substrate and a clear exit. Support organisms need a fighting force around them.
Full dossier
An advanced production branch for Sporecasters, Mistweavers and Spewer backline firepower.
Combine delayed siege impacts, movement control and protected acid salvos when advancing on ground forces.
Requires Specialized Production and a completed Gene Chamber. Its specialists need vision and protection.
Full dossier
The research organ for Specialized Production, Logistics and Field Engineering.
Develop the technologies needed for advanced hatcheries, aerial forces and field specialists.
Needs active connected living territory and HQ Development for advanced unlocks. Srost research requires a Growth Node; losing the chamber does not erase completed research.
Full dossier
Gradually extends connected living territory and out-of-combat recovery, and adds supply at separated developed sites.
Let the parent region reach the new node, then expand toward more territory. Separated, developed sites improve hatchery production.
Sites need 75% growth and 384 world units of separation to add ten supply places each. Cutting a connection immediately removes the branch’s operation, supply and recovery benefits. Overlapping nodes do not multiply recovery.
Full dossier
A logistics branch that produces Brood Carriers and Burrowers.
Evacuate survivors in a Brood Carrier or prepare a short burrow transfer within living territory.
Requires Logistics, a Small Hatchery and Mother Core. Needs active living substrate and clear production exits.
Full dossier
The field-specialist branch for Grapplers and Parasites.
Hold enemies inside your spore fields or infect and weaken a dangerous combat unit.
Requires Field Engineering, a War Hatchery and a Gene Chamber. These specialists depend on careful positioning.
Full dossier
A dedicated aerial hatchery for Stinger fighters and Blightwing ground attackers.
Open an air route after Specialized Production and combine the two creatures according to the enemy’s targets.
Needs active living territory and advanced research. Flying units still need protection from fighters and anti-air.
Full dossier
A living-territory-dependent anti-air defense organism available without advanced research.
Attacks: Air only
Guard important hatcheries and harvesting lines against aircraft.
Targets aircraft only. Ground attackers and severed roots need a different defensive answer.
Full dossier
Researches three levels of biological weapons, shells and recovery for the brood.
Protect it inside your living network and improve the army that holds your expanding territory.
Needs active connected living territory for research. Upgrades compete with new hatcheries and expansion.
Full dossier
A worker-operated catalyst organ grown directly on a catalyst deposit.
Staff it with up to three Cultivators in a camp with a completed Mother Core before advanced research.
Shares the camp worker limit with minerals. Living territory does not create free resources; this is not a mineral receiver.
Full dossierColonist buildings operate independently. Khars need direct resonance coverage; Srost needs connected living ground. Supply is separate, and paid queues reserve it immediately.
