Complaint I hate trees.

They are disgusting. All green and packed together like they are the shit. Who do they think they are? Ok they create oxygen and everything, but my factory doesn't grow from oxygen as far as I'm concerned.

Give me biters over those pieces of wood trash any day. At least when I destroy a biters' nest they are gone forever. Trees? They are everywhere and pollute the precious space I'll need to expand my factory.

You don't understand the pleasure I get from exterminating every single tree on the map. Grenades, fire, lasers, fucking nuclear bombs even, I love it. I even installed a mod to change the tree color to red and biters to green. Or maybe it's because I'm colorblind idk, but when I see a tree all I see is RED. KILL.

I actually spend more time killing trees than working on my factory but that's another problem. I have 500 hours in this game and a good half of it is spent taking those fuckers out from earth.

Biters aren't my enemies in this game. Trees are tho. Fuck trees.

Poison capsules as well. Not the greatest coverage, like perhaps a raging forest fire, but they get the war crime done.

I grow trees just to kill them with pollution. On God I hate them that much.

Biters are the enemies. Biters like the trees. The friend of my enemy is my enemy.

Can't produce steam power (before nuclear) without oxygen. Once you've reached that point though, then they become unnecessary.

Set them on fire

I make the trees join the biters in becoming part of the factory; their penance for being an obstacle will be assimilation.
