# Technician

Technicians make the number one resource essential for life on Mars — Power. Everyone relies on these electrical experts to ensure the continuous flow of energy to every corner of the colony. ### **Relevant Item Types:** 1. Solar Panel Array 2. Fission Reactor 3. Megapower Reactor ### **Strategic Resource Production:** 1. Power **Appeals to:** Players who are interested in a more passive playstyle. Players who enjoy being the provider of a fundamental resource on which most other roles will rely. ### Progression Requirements
