Do the parasheild mass cost with t2 pgens, because, well, you have t2 tech
Well, at this rate, if you have T2 power, you're saving, not on mass, but on power instead. But, let's see if I can get some stats for you.
-T2 PGen:
1,200 Mass, +500 E Yield
-Parashield :
220 Mass, -80 E Yield
-Asylum:
220 Mass, -45 E Yield
So, you need 6.25 Parashields (500/80) or 11.11 Asylums (500/45) to use up all of power output of one T2 Pgen.
-Parashield:
220 * 6.25 = 1,375 mass
-Asylum:
220 * 11.11 = 2,444.2 mass
This means that as Aeon, you can spend an extra 1,069.2 mass (2,444.2 - 1,375) by using one T2 pgen's power on more Asylums. However, this does not include the extra Asylum units. Let's adjust for that.
Aeon has an extra 5.23 units (11.11 - 5.88). This means the extra units cost you 1,150.6 mass (5.23 * 220). So, basically, the mass you could spend on another Pgen as UEF, you can spend into units as Aeon. Aeon ends up spending a whopping 81.4 mass (1,150.6 - 1,069.2) to use the same power.
If that didn't make sense, let me explain it another way - in gameplay terms
10 mobile shields on each side vs the power they need to run. I will be using T1 as well as T2 power.
UEF requires an extra 15 T1 pgens to even out with a +0 power cost.
Aeon requires no extra pgens, but instead still has a +50 networth in power.
So, again, Aeon saves 1,125 mass (15 T1 pgen for 75 mass each).
(And not to mention each Asylum has 500 more HP than the Parashield. (And Hover.))
Hope this made sense.
