Dumb Question?

[beaux]

This is a dumb question I know but, I've got to ask. When setting up outposts are all buildings needed oil rigs, iron mines, trade centers, etc. or is just command center & what other buildings are needed? Thanks

No specific buildings are "required". Build whatever fits your strategy. Most people build only resource buildings on their outposts.

I put my outposts places where I can get 2 or 3 resource spots, so of course I have 2 or 3 oil rigs or iron mines,
Then I have a factory for pumping out units so I don't need to rely on being able to get them from home base, 1,000km away.
Then I have a trading centre, and a refinery.
If there is only 2 resource spots I get a wharehouse as well.

What about Sensor Towers & Defense Grids? Need them in the Outpost?

Not sure about them, nobody seems to know how they work!

Don't you just love the massive amount of information provided by Gree detailing how things work in their game?

It all comes down how you want to use your outpost. If its only for the resources go for your life with iron, oil etc. However, keep in mind that every outpost is a possible target. If you really want to use your outpost forever besides stocking it up with a big army and a strong commander, you will also need a sensor tower and a defence grid. The sensor tower will help you detect enemies and depending on the level of the upgrade you will get more information about your attacker. Defence grid increases the range of defence of your units. I still have no idea how or how much. It would be nice for Gree to help us a little bit but i guess we ll have to keep guessing and experimenting how to play the game.

Sensor tower is an absoulute must have as is the defence grid give your base high health harder to be taken in a capture attempt

Wait, are you saying it's better to have a sensor tower as well as a defense grid in each base??

New question:

How do I increase capacity? like get the max to go from 116k to say 200k?

build or upgrade your warehouses

One thing to consider if you are having your main base targeted. Move your Research building to an outpost especially if you are grouping around a strong faction member....

You don't NEED them, they aren't Obligatory, just an incredibly good idea, which is why I find it INTENSELY annoying that Outposts are only 7 Hexes.
