Plasma Generator

The Plasma Generator generates the Power resource, which is essential for creating and deploying units, building structures, and upgrading your technology. You can only build six Plasma Generators per Desecrated Stronghold . When destroyed, Plasma Generators will damage any nearby unit or structure.

Tactics

Build your first Plasma Generator immediately after completing construction of the Chaos Temple and another when resources allow it. Since Plasma Generators are the preferred target of enemies who rush early in the game, it is generally a good idea to build Plasma Generators behind the Desecrated Stronghold, where they are easier to defend. Do not build Plasma Generators in preference to Thermo Plasma Generators because Thermo Plasma Generators do not decay.
