Space Locust

Able to inflict only the most miniscule amount of damage to spacecraft, the space locust's devastating powers lie elsewhere. These vermin tend to encroach upon whole sectors, sucking up any hydrogen they can find into their ample-sized bodies, leaving behind uninhabitable wasteland. The space locust's migratory behavior is highly complex and a mystery to science. It seems that infestations come in long-term waves, and appear to happen more or less simultaneously with other locust hives. It is an open debate as to what causes an infestation and how it can be eradicated, but surely destruction of a hive should help.

Locations

Space Locusts spawn on energy tiles in the same or neighbouring sectors as a Locust Hive.
