Relics

Builder scarabs capturing a relic.

Relics are points on a map that provide more resouces than both Strategic Points and Critical Locations. There usually very few relics on a map so there can be big battles over them. Relics let the player build there most powerful units so capturing another players relic can greatly improve your chances of winning. Relics, like strategic points and critical locations, can be captured by most units. Commanders and Vehicles can not capture relics. Listening posts can be built and upgraded on relics to produce more resources and fortify them. Relics can decay, producing less resources over time. Relics do not produce requisition for Necrons, instead they speed up the Necron building time.
