Dawn of War/Settlement

The Settlement serves as the Headquarters of the Orks in Dawn of War. This Building allows the player to train key units as well as researching technologies. Constructing a second Settlement costs 650 Requisition and 150 Power. However, unlike most buildings, cost scales by 250 more Requisition and 150 Power as more are built after the 2nd one is built. For example, constructing it the 3rd time requires 900 Requisition and 300 Power while constructing it the 4th time requires 1150 Requisition and 450 Power with the 5th and final time costing 1400 Requisition and 600 Power. Even if the original Settlement is destroyed, the effect of the original upgrade still applies to the player. Thus, the player can still deploy advanced units and only needs to research the subsequent Orky Fort add-ons only once since researching it for other Settlements have no effect other than changing its attack, hit points and appearance. Although it is the most expensive structure, each Settlement generates a +20 Requisition rate which never decays over time. The building features 3000 Hit Points and like all artificial constructs, it has no Morale.
