  • Combustible Units are a very efficient early fuel for Icarus and Thermal Power Plants, and they are extremely simple to produce in large quantities.
  • As with most fuels, spraying Combustible Units with Proliferator provides an almost free 12.5% extra energy.
  • Combustible Units are a fantastic early-game weapon to combat the Dark Fog, on top of being a great fuel source. They can be lobbed from a distance to chip down Planetary Bases and can clean up multiple Dark Fog units with a single throw. They also have incredible damage per second at close range, as Icarus can throw another Combustible Unit the moment one explodes. By repeatedly pressing the throw button (left mouse by default), the Combustible Units will be thrown at the minimum range in quick succession, and this will not damage Icarus itself.
    • To complete the Strangle in the Cradle Achievement, Combustible Units are a requirement. Icarus's blaster and Magnum Ammo can only hit one target at a time and deal very low damage per shot. This makes them them unsuitable for taking on many Dark Fog units at once and even more unsuitable for actually breaking down the Planetary Base's structures, which can have thousands of health each.
