Pop or not?
I was wondering, should I send our Unity rover right now to pop the pod indicated by the square cursor, or should it drive further west to that other western unity pod, and leave the more eastern one for a later date when a second unit can accompany it to deal with any worms, or a transport where the rover can flee to?
The advantage of popping it right now would be that we get the potential advantages right now, and that no one else can pop the pod before us.
The disadvantage is that the pod is located on a rocky peninsula, so if mind worms appear, the rover has no opportunity to drive away.

I concur. Pop it. Benefits outweigh the possible risks (an AA would be great for either the tech of taking the PEG) and it's on a rocky tile so it get's extra defense

IIRC Googlie set up the game so no techs or AAs would appear out of Unity pods. Gives us a higher chance for eg a credit boost though. Can be handy.

I'm not sure: Does rockiness count in psi combat?

ok might as well jump on the bang wagon here.

POP IT!!

Unfotunatly we cant actualy do so on this turn so it will have to wait.

Remember to change the Production in And/Or to some realy nice and expensive building (like a NetNode or Reserch Hospital so we can potentialy get it free if its one of thouse, nothing is worse then wasting thouse on a former or something).

Personaly I hope its 150 Credits that would be VERY helpfull right now.

I'd go for the free research hospital That would be quite nice But 150 creds wouldn't be bad, especially if they both have something like that
