The Sun Disc Thrower is the ideal anti-aerial transport weapon (it destroys
Whirlwinds in a single shot) and is a good starting weapon while you get better elemental units.

Cheap but Crossbows make them useless, unless you can draw their fire away using blockers (stone towers are recommended) while the gigs attack. Low damage but don't disappear until destroyed, have to reload though. They do not attack collectors or priests!!
The Whirlibase churns out a Whirligig and when the Whirligig dies the base makes a new one. If the base gets destroyed and the Whirligig is still alive it will stay alive until it runs out of fuel.
*Whirlibase does no damage but the Whirligig which it makes does.

This is what the Whirlibase makes and is a good weak air attacker that is best used in large groups.
Note- A Whirligig will NEVER attack a transport.

Cheapest blocker in the game, Great if you don't have much money, early protection in game but aren't built to last like bulwarks or wind towers.
Great when used together with Whirligigs.
Put this between a valuable unit and incoming fire and it will block it. It is good but wont hold out long against most units like the Thunder Cannon.

Cheap but doesn't compare to crossbow, which does more damage over a larger area and only costs 100 SP more. However you can use these to out-range crossbows.
A stronger version of the sun disc thrower but can be easily outmaneuvered (it can only fire straight so attacking from the side will spell disaster) and on top of that it fires much less slower. Good for assault with use of lots firing at same time.

Often thought of as the best support unit in the game, you can't expect to become a great player unless you know how to use these very well and quickly. They are extremely cheap, only need 1 generator to build. Sometimes
Sun Barricades can be used on their own as cheap blockers when you don't have any other blockers in production.
A valuable unit, when two or more are used with each other side be side they make an invincible barrier to incoming fire. When the barricades are broken however, the barrier goes away.

Almost a requirement for all types of games. If you want to win you will need to build this workshop for best chances of survival as it allows you to use the cheap but useful Sun technology.
The Workshop makes all the units, you can make what units you want in it and if destroyed you cannot make any units you want that specific workshop to make.
*- Can be upgraded to level 3

The wind Generator is just like any other generator, wind generators are used for wind technology. You can use generators to blow up bridges by making them melt down, Bridging is very important aspect maybe most if you are surrounded by bridges or u cant connect an isle cause of enemy bridges its better u blow up instead of bridging around
This unit generates wind energy to produce other units. Make lots of these.

The sail skater is a good collector, fast, smart, wont move on broken bridges and good to collect cash from close geysers that u can easily connect
The Sail Skater is faster and better than the Golem and is the fastest transport.

A very strong collector, fastest one too, only build them when u are sure of income and when u got a lotta cash
It is similar to a balloon but much sturdier but much slower.
