From what I can understand the WEA has two 'fortress' structures; the Fortress and the Olympus Fortress. So, why not call one of them 'citadel' or 'Olympus Platform', because having two fortressess seem a little excessive.

Also, what is the difference between the Solar Furnace and the Power Plant just revealed?

The Fortress is called just that and the defensive structure is called Olympus FORT. Personally i don't really see a problem. Citadel atm is reserved for something else.

The power plant is available at the start, offering a cheap/fast built power source. Massing this offers a safe power source but you need quite alot of them for a nice defense line. The solar furnace is expensive as fuck, requires additional tier level, and since it produces alot of power it comes as a risky choice - build 1 or 2 of this and risk having your entire defense line unpowered if they get destroyer or go with the cheap one and mass the living fuck out of them.

Really?

'Cus to me it clearly says 'fortress' at the bottom.

That power system seems highly unique. I can't wait to play this mod.

Uniqueness is Overrated



The fortress in the Olympus name is just an indicator to what it is it's not part of the name, like crusader tank.

In this case the Olympus is based on the fortress which it why it's called a fortress.
