[DUNE] Colony Structures Mod

[DUNE] Colony Structures Mod

this one also aimes to expand the possibilities in building your colonies by keeping the vanilla experience as far as possible and to bring some content of one of the most famous scifi game and novel series – DUNE.

3 technologies, 2 building plus upgrades and three ground forces will be added to the game. The buildings and technology icons are scratchmade and heavily ispired by the game DUNE II.

Technologies
Planetary Radar Grid – society/new worlds
“With the colonization of new worlds the observation of the near unknown space becomes more important as we still don’t know what lies behind the distant stars.”
Prerequisition: New Worlds Protocol
Researchable after the first colony has been founded. Unlocks the Colony Outpost.

Automated Construction Facilities – engineering/materials
“To successfully encounter the new alien threats on the terrestrial scale, we need innovative, automated construction methods to build light and apative combat vehicles.”
Prerequisition: Planetary Radar Grid
Unlocks the Light Vehicle Factory and the Combat Vehicle Divison.

Improved Construction Facilities – engineering/materials
“Larger facilities with improved construction protocols will grant us the ability to build lager and more effective combat vehicles”
Prerequisition: Automated Construction Facilities
Unlocks the Heavy Vehicle Factory and the Combat Tank Divison/Missile Tank Division.
