Nest

An ant nest is the physical paths and chambers built underground suitable for a colony to live in.

When a nest is inhabited it can be:

• Enemy Colony
• Allied Colony
• Unowned Allied Colony
• Controlled Colony

Ruin

A once inhabited nest that is destroyed becomes a ruin. A ruin can be rebuilt to a nest.

  • Secret chambers - Experienced players may build secret chambers too. (Can not be destroyed by players unless they kill the colony living there first)
• Food (how much food is stored)
• Location information, what country and region it is in. (used for scoring)
• Name
