Power plant VS Adv. power plant
PP costs $300, supplies 100 power. APP costs $700, supplies 200 power. I guess the only reason one would favour APP is space-saving?

I only build 1 of the advanced ones because the AI likes to target them with super weapons.

Didn't know that. Won't be building anymore.

Building health may also be a point to consider.

If I'm not mistaken, basic power plants have 400 hp and adv. power plants have 700 hp. Basic plants are more likely to be completely destroyed by airstrikes and would need to be rebuilt over and over again until proper defenses are up.

Though, lots of basic plants might still work better depending on the situation.

Yeah it's strange. In Tiberian Dawn, you are better off with basic power plants, because reasons?

Maybe the adv powerplants use superconductors which are super expensive :D
