Solaris

Solaris is a unit in Dark Colony.

Background
The Solaris is an energy harnessing device which has been modified to expel the power it stores. When activated, it begins to absorb all visible light within a 40km radius and then releases the energy in a massive energy blast that burns everything within a 50m radius.

Gameplay
A floating mine. Excellent against concentrated enemy forces.

It is not a mine. It is a deploy able bomb. Very handy at attacking enemy bases and turrets. Make sure the enemy is distracted with your troops so they do not focus down the solaris

Trivia
-Solaris artifact name most likely has to do with its ability to harness solar energy into a weapon. Similar to a solar panel but destructive

-The solaris gives a hint that the artifacts left by the precursor where most likely a war like race. as evident by its destructive power.

-The single use of the artifact would most likely mean the precursor race that created them where very wasteful. Thus aluding to their eventual extinction
