Tech Buildings are structures that originally belong to no particular faction and cannot be constructed by them but can be captured for various bonuses. Once captured, all Tech Buildings provide a build radius, which allows buildings to be placed around it.

Pretty cool stuff, imagine the AI will not always fully utilize them though?
The AI may attempt to siege control of the structures but unfortunately the logics cannot be utilised by the AI (in terms of ordering infantry into a structure)
However the campaign will feature elements from this feature e.g. mutant fanatics attacking a outpost or enemy forces have seized control of a important Armory/Hospital
