Energy icon.

Energy is a static resource in the Magitech techtree, used solely by the Magic faction. It is required for producing units, and is not harvested from any tileset object, as many resources are.


Energy is only obtained from one source: the Energy Source building, which produces 14 energy when built. Some mods that fit into the Magitech techtree, such as Dark Magic, use alternative methods. In this case, they have a different type of energy source which can produce energy is differing amounts, without having to build new Energy Source's.


In Magic, energy is only used to produce units, requiring either 1 or 2 energy, depending on the strength of the unit.
