Production in GooglieGrad
Next turn Googliegrad finishes it's former. It will have 5 turns until growth. We have two options.

We either build a crawler in the base first. Then a scout. Or we can build a scout first then a crawler.

If we build a crawler first we get to crawler minerals back to base for 3 extra turns. We gain 5-6 extra minerals. However, there is the possibility of a mind worm appearing, although I believe the possibility is low.

This is due to reading the article (from the frixis website) on how sensors prevent mindworms of appearing from fungus within area of the sensor. Googliegrad has a sensor, so the fungus within 2 squares of it shouldn't be able to produce mindworms.

With if we build the crawler first the scout will be built on the 5th turn. If we build the scout first the scout will be built on the 2nd turn.

I voted option two. We need all the turn advantage we can get!

I agree. This risk is rather small. Especially so if you consider the first turn of building crawler if a worm appears we can switch production to scout. So we really only face the risk in the second and third turn.

Plus, Googliegrad has the Deity Defence (much stronger even than the Tachyon Shield)
