Founding an HQ[edit | edit source]
Whenever you found an HQ, any resources underneath your HQ are removed and added to your stockpile. A high resource tile gives you +20, a medium +15, and a low +10. The Robotic HQ gives you double this bonus.
HQs must be founded on flat ground.
After founding, other players may not claim resources or ice up to four tiles around your HQ for a set period of time. With the exception of Nomads, tiles closest to the HQ are blocked for 80 seconds, while the furthest tile is blocked for 20 seconds. Both Nomadic HQs block tiles around the HQ buildings.
Tiles from HQ | Elite, Expansive, Robotic, Scavenger, & Scientific | Nomadic |
---|---|---|
1 tile | 80 seconds | 40 seconds |
2 tiles | 60 seconds | 40 seconds |
3 tiles | 40 seconds | 20 seconds |
4 tiles | 20 seconds |
