Observant sprout

In build 23882143, the Observant sprout has zero resource prices and a fifteen-second creation time. It contributes 30 energy and 50 storage: “Post for area control.” Its health record has 484 base hit points, reserve capacity 50, armour 0 and area coefficient 0.1. A linked Security call event targets a spawning action whose list contains four Worms entries. The correction dated 4 September 2026 therefore identified a defence-related action, without establishing permanent guards, guaranteed activation or complete protection for the surrounding area.

The Mutant and Travelers watch-tower configurations both contribute 30 energy in build 23882143. The Observant sprout additionally contributes 50 storage; the Travelers tower records 7 front armour. The correction dated 4 September 2026 also separated their Security call effects: the Mutant event’s spawning list points to Worms, while the other tower points to Riflemen. Matching ability descriptions are not proof of matching spawned units. These differences concern recorded support and defence, not an automatic judgement that either tower is the better investment in every situation.

The Observant sprout adds 50 storage alongside its recorded energy output. Its zero resource prices do not make placement risk-free: it occupies construction time and a position. Its Security call also means the old description of a structure that only observes was incomplete. The 50 storage addition raises a ceiling rather than generating materials, and the official area-control role does not provide a quantified vision radius here. Place it where those support functions are relevant, while checking the call’s availability instead of assuming permanent protection or costless replacement.

The correction dated 4 September 2026 matters when evaluating the Observant sprout: its 484 base hit points are not the whole defensive picture. The linked call names Worms, whose unit record carries 900 base health, reserve capacity 50, armour 2 and area coefficient −0.2. These are unit parameters, not proof of extra splash damage or immediate arrival. The tower contributes 30 energy and 50 storage. Judge the active call and these support benefits against your raid’s objective; neither always destroying it nor always walking past follows from its price and health alone.
