Cybran Tech 3 Defenses

MYMRIDON – ANTI-AIR SAM LAUNCHER

T3 anti-air is the ultimate solution to air attacks. It’ll take out any plane with a barrage of tracking missiles, and it does enough damage that a couple of them are able to stop even T2 transport drops before they get close. If your scouting reveals a T3 air factory or a cloud of malignant gunships, start making these guys; you’ll be glad you did. The Cybran SAM launcher isn’t as good at taking out clouds of units, but much better at taking out single, heavily armored units – just what you wanted to keep gunships away.

DISRUPTOR – HEAVY ARTILLERY INSTALLATION

T3 artillery is perhaps the most ironclad of long-term plans: build one in range of the enemy base, covered with an impenetrable defense, and only heavy shields can save them. A word of warning: it has a substantial minimum range, so you’ll need to protect it with T2 artillery. While Cybran T3 artillery has less range and firepower than the other factions’, it’s considerably cheaper to build, which makes a difference when the extra 15000 Mass could buy you the four upgraded Cybran shields to protect it.

LIBERATOR – STRATEGIC MISSILE LAUNCHER

A nuke wipes out everything in its path, and that’s why it’s so ridiculously expensive and has its own specialized defenses. You can either eliminate their nuke defenses with traditional arms and then follow up with a decisive strike, or in team games, you can have your teammate protect you while you rush to get a single nuke missile targeting the enemy Commander before they even think of having defenses for it.

GUARDIAN – STRATEGIC MISSILE DEFENSE

It’s never a bad idea to have a nuke defense covering your T3 factories and power farms in a long game, just in case someone gets any funny ideas. You can assist the nuke defense missiles if you’re worried about time.

OLYMPUS – OMNI SENSOR ARRAY

The Omni Sensor basically requires its own dedicated T3 power generator, especially if you decide to put a shield around your significant investment, but it’s worth it: it gives your base protection from stealth and cloaking fields while also expanding your radar range so you won’t need multiples. You don’t need to make one immediately on reaching T3, but towards the end of the game most players have excess energy to power one anyway.

T3 SONAR PLATFORM

The Cybran sonar platform can make itself invisible to counteract its low armor and give your torpedo launchers the edge, or it can be a mobile stealth unit of the seas, letting your subs attack without warning. It’s a niche purpose, but it can occasionally come in handy.
