MULE

The MULE mines 200 resources from a tile. It cannot mine from a claimed tile and has to travel to and from the tile (making farther tiles take longer to mine). It gathers resources at the same rate as a building on the same tile would, ignoring any upgrades or patents. It can mine from tiles adjacent to the resources once Slant Drilling is patented. However, the MULE can be intercepted by Pirates. Purchasing MULE from either black market or auction will give 2 MULEs.
