| A natural wonder has happened to this desolate planet. Huge monumental crystals called monoliths have formed on the planet surface, although some have been found underground. Another alien species thrives on these towers of power, and have been trying as hard as possible to obtain the planet, but their efforts are insufficient. These crystals are just really big, pretty, hunks of stone unless you "Fix" them. Monotiths are to be surrounded by an electro magnetic banding that harbors the energy from inside, and pulls out the continually renewing energy of the stones. That power is channeled into stations at the base of the crystals to supply power to the planet. The citys must be built around these crystals, or close to them. |
