Barricade

Basic Information
The barricade is available from stage 1. Even at stage 2 the barricade can only be placed on the ground. Barricades allow aliens to close off choke points or protect exposed parts of the Overmind.

Techniques
When building barricades it is important to consider if they will also block or inhibit your own teams access into and out of the base.

The barricade is a costly structure, requiring the same build points as an egg; Additionally barricades have a long build time of 20 seconds, compared to the eggs 15 seconds. Due to this, it is often only worth placing when the barricade will offer significant protection to the base. Barricades can also be used to slow humans in an area, however their creep size is actually the same as all other alien structures.
