<div class="IPBDescription">New gorge buildable</div>An infestation blob would be a cyst-like structure (glowy and such) that a Gorge can build. Each Gorge can have only one infestation blob active at a time.
An infestation blob generates infestation in the same radius as a cyst, but cannot link cyst chains. The idea is it's a buildable that the Gorge can throw down to give the khammander a localised area where they can build a limited number of structures without requiring connection to the cyst network. Uses could include pre-loading a new hive area, setting up a forward assault base, and protecting vulnerable RTs from cyst-death. This would also allow Gorges to be a little more pro-active in assisting the Khammander with expansion without many of the imbalancing issues that arose from Gorge cysts.
And that's pretty much my idea.
