How good are fusion reactors? And what about the heavy mineral miners? I can build both now and I was wondering how good they were.

Look for the thread on this board calledeverything you wanted to know about fusion generators. In a nutshell, you want one.

Heavy harvesters produce at 7, medium at 4, personal at 2. Heavys take 3x the maintenance and power of a personal so you get a production bonus for the same amount of expenditure as 3 personals, and they only take up 1 lot.

My rule of thumb has been, to make medium houses with a reasonable turn around time, you need medium harvesters, and to make large houses you need large harvesters.
