Just a bit unclear on how best to use that, as the costs (energy penalty in the colony, upkeep increase on the Propagator unit,) seem quite high.Īgain, any help greatly appreciated. I get that the towers and Propagators have a basic effect, and then the Broadcasts give them an additional effect. One other thing, I'm also a bit confused how best to use the Shakarn Propagation towers, Broadcasts and Propagators. Long story short, any advice greatly appreciated. I've tried searching on here and reading various advice on the Shakarn, but after a half a dozen attempts I'm still stumped. I'm trying to rush to get 4 settlements up and running in 20 turns, but I still seem to be short of food, energy, research and/or production no matter what I do.

I went Voidtech in the previous mission, and have my commander and my other starting hero at level 8 when Mission 2 begins, so lots of skill points to play with.

I also can't afford the upkeep for fortifying my colonies or expanding my military, so I usually seem to start losing the colonies either from the first Voidbringer army that spawns or from the wars with other factions that Chancellor Kor invariably drags me in to. The issue I'm having is it seems like everybody is more established, has a better economy and/or better units, where as I can't even afford the upkeep on the units I start with and don't have the time to get established myself. I've managed to complete the original campaigns, Revelations and the first mission of the Invasions/Shakarn campaign, but now I'm well and truly stuck on the second mission of the Shakarn Campaign. So I've had this game a few months now, mainly playing the campaigns, but I still feel like a new player.
