mothership
Up: Table of Contents Previous: Unit Next: Unit
----- Moves fast and carries anything anywhere -----
Point Value: 1
Notes:
The most effective invasions tend to be conducted using at least one mothership for moving equipment and supplies. A mothership can carry any kind of ground units and aircraft, as well as lots of fuel and ammo. It moves extremely quickly and is much more difficult to destroy than a boat or a carrier. On the other hand, if a mothership is destroyed, whatever forces it was carrying either find themselves destroyed or stranded in enemy territory.
