Lightning tower is a Defense building in Aven Colony.

Characteristics

The Lightning Tower protects the colony from lightning strikes in a radius around the building and transfers the electricity to any Energy Batteries connected to the colony.

Strategy

• Necessary to save money in the long term and prevent some major headaches with rebuilding tunnels destroyed by strikes. Build one before the first winter.
• Gathers about 10 units of energy per strike. This can actually significantly extend battery life during thunderstorms.
