Buildings | The Goo Grey Goo Guide

This race does not have buildings, in the traditional meaning of the word. Instead, it has three mobile units that play the role of production plants - Mother Goo, Small Protean and Large Protean. De dependency between them is simple - Mother Goo creates more Mother Goos and both Proteans, and these turn into the selected units. Small Protean produces light units, the Large one creates heavy units. All three production units are capable of movement and attacking the enemies encountered, which slows them down, at the same time, but only Mother Goo profits from that. Also, only Mother can use resource deposits, in order to replenish its health. Apart from that, the Small Protean and Mother Goo have stealth detection so, they can be used for scouting. Especially the Small Protean is good at that, thanks to the high speed of movement.

To produce units, Mother Goo needs to be located on a resource deposit. This way, the pool of potential health points increases. When they reach a certain level, the Mother may create another Mother Goo or a Protean. With the maximum capacity of points, it can turn into Purger. Morphing into the Purger makes you lose the Mother Goo, and does not create another one. Creating an unit decreases the pool of points. Because of production, the amount of points cannot drop below a certain level. Proteans turn into groups of units, instead of single ones. The only exception is Bastion. The rest of the units appear in pairs, or in groups of four (Drover).

All of the buildings are mobile, where Mother Goo can climb cliffs. This makes it a versatile unit, good both for combat and for reconnaissance.
