you can't gate minerals, but you can gate ultra miners)

You can't gate Ultra-Miner hulls safely, at least if they're anywhere near fully loaded. The mining hulls and robots definitely could have been named better, though. Laughing

With ARM your best miner is the Midget Miner with 2 Robo-Ultra-Miners, for 50 mine-equivalents.


Yeah, that's what I meant when I wrote ultra-miner. As AR these are certainly my workhorse. Note that for AR the ability to gate is especially nice because they mine on the turn of arrival (for inhabited planets), so you don't lose a turn by shuffling them around...
