Tactics and Strategy[edit]

Compared to its longer-range cousin, the Trinity strategic nuclear launcher, the Missile Silo fires smaller Tactical Missiles cannot be intercepted by Antinuke coverage.

The missiles can take damage while on the Silo, and if they (or the Silo itself) are destroyed, the missiles will explode. While missiles cannot be intercepted while they are in flight, they might hit the ground (especially if terraformed) or a shield and explode before they reach the intended target.

Further information: Missile Silo Tutorial

See Also[edit]

Striders Reef and Scylla can stockpile and fire disarming and nuclear tactical (respectively) missiles in situations that require mobility. Like Missile Silo's missiles, they also cannot be intercepted by an antinuke.
