Re: Would you use this giant remote miner?
When playing P&N I choose nomads and crank up my maintanance to the sky. A starbase with the recycling node plus the maint. bonus can have you looking at a maintanance cost of nearly zero!!
And of course when you're playing a nomadic race, you cant really colonize, so remote mining is your only real option. I avoid the satelite option however, you just don't rape enough resource to make it worthwhile (IMHO)
