Assuming there is enough science to research turrets.
I horribly misread this momentarily, but now I'm imagining what "research turrets" could look like. Red science powered turrets? :)
Every time it shoots something, it produces a little bit of research.
Anyone remember when the aliens dropped alien-artifacts, needed to make purple-science?
Uggghhhhhhhh. The game is so much better today than where it started (and it already was a good game back then... crazy how much all the little improvements helped).
If not, time for bed!
You got enough power for all those lasers? Looks like that coal field is running low!
