This is a “Play as creeper” add-on unit. Place it down and it will start to suck up surrounding creeper. Once it is full, it will burst open and release spores targeted at random map locations.

Hover your cursor over the unit for more details.

Be careful! It is vulnerable to anticreep.

“We had stemmed the flow of creeper, and had contained the remaining creep in a large lake.

It would take days to pound all that sludge down to nothing, but to our surprise it vanished by itself in the span of minutes.

To our horror its was replaced by hundreds of spores…

We lost the entire colony. Defensive lines are eviscerated. The creeper has established emitters in the core of our infrastructure.

This will be our final transmission.” -Field Commander 741318-12DBB-X3 (KIA)

Central administration recommendation: Redirect creep focus to fringe colonies through fleet actions. Setup on-surface observation. Develop countermeasure. Non-administrator losses acceptable.
