Age of Wonders: Planetfall - Dev Diary #50: Orbital Relays

[The Founder]

Quite right! Forgot about that. Still, per tech unique orbital relays may be fun. Maybe they create better op strength, cloak redeployed armies or buff them, or allow for special actions in zones where they are present?

You mean them giving a Battlefield Effect or acting like a Visit Site?
That might indeed be interesting. If the Voidtech Relay gave Fast Movement (accounting for the turn the unit is unable to move further), it could easily replace that opeartion.

Exactly. Not only does it create a lot of strategic depth, I feel that the incredible technologies commanders wield would allow them to shape the worlds infrastructure and would like to see it reflected on the strategic map. Not sure about it replacing the operation(as it allows a Voidtech player to trade energy and operation points for extra movement), which seems 'right' as an unique trade for this tech.
