Pitch
Pitch is a dark, viscous resource that weights your ranged and specialist folds and fuels your storm-craft. Pitch is mined from Pitch Pools, tarry black springs on the map.
Gathering
- Mined by Prospectors into the global stockpile
- Each trip carries 4 Pitch
- Each Pitch Pool holds 700 Pitch before it is drained
- A drained Pool slowly recharges over time
- Teams start with 0 Pitch — you must go and mine it
Uses
Pitch is required for:
- Pelters, Prowlers, and Plaguebearers (ranged and specialist units)
- Proxies and Proxie Ploppers (walking bombs and their launchers)
- Printworks construction
- Storm-craft and area-denial: Plume Proofing, Pitch-Soaked Proxies, and pestilence
Strategy
Pitch is a military resource — you don’t need it for basic economy, so ramp it up when you plan ranged, specialist, or bomb-heavy compositions. Because you begin with none, a contested Pitch Pool early can lock an opponent out of their storm-craft entirely. Control of Pitch opens unit compositions your enemy may not be able to answer.
