Your Dropship is the backbone of your base. From it, you build all other ships and structures, which must be placed in a perimeter around the Dropship.

In order to start building, you must first deploy it. Do this by clicking on your Dropship the second time, or using your deploy key on the keyboard.

Your FTA Collector is your basic money gathering unit. Highlight it then send it out to a nearby resource and when it returns it'll be carrying $500 back.

Blade Scouts are your lightweight attack and scout vehicles. They're faster then tanks, but also less powerful. Use them for exploration or keep them in groups if you want them to last.

FTA Tanks are more powerful then Blade Scouts, but are also slower. Their stronger shells and stronger armor make them a much better choice for large scale attacks.
