Late Game ECO

Postby palombhp » 13 Jul 2014, 18:45

Hi,

once all mexes are t3 and surrounded by storage, the ACU RAS is also done, what's the best way to further increase the eco?

T3 PGen + T2 MassFabs or Spamming SCU RAS? Or is there another good way?

I've seen a seton's replay and the guy on the rock position had ~750 mass income and was not expanding further on his rock position.

cheers

T2 mass fabs are the way I guess. SCU RAS is more micro and less efficient masswise (afaik), but you get a super durable engineer which you can use to reclaim.

SCU with ras produces +11 mass and +1020 power for 6500 mass invested. To do that with fabs you need 11 fabs, which uses 11*121 power. To get on net +1020 power like SCU you need ~0.9 T3 pgens. The total cost is then 4147 mass. So fabs are more efficient. However, SCUs have high HP and they can build. Having them around your base gives protection because you can spam up defences fast. So ultimately, a mix is probably the best option.

Mh, so a mix of SCU+RAS building massfab/Pgen farms?
