[edit] Predatory

Amorphs kill colonists at a 300 to 1 ratio. (300 Amorphs kill 1 Colonist).
When a native amorphous worm attack kills a base all the amorphous natives escape to the planet and any prisoners that may have been in the base will create a new base and have to fend for themselves. (Host 212e)
Colonists of The Crystal Assembly and The Aczanny Pyramids are not attacked by Amorphs.
Bases being attacked by Amorphous Worms will lose 5 happiness. (Host 212e)
Losses to Worms are remarkably small; less than 350 per 100,000 Worms.
To find the exact minimum needed to avoid reduction, use this formula:
C = W / (300 * G)
Where C = Needed Colonists Population, W = wild Worms on planet and G =Growth Rate.

Base log (Host 213h):

HELP! Base under attack by amorphous worms!!! X colonists are missing. Happiness has decreased by Y.

[edit] Spice Production

Planets with amorphous natives yield 1 kt of Lerchin Spice per 1000 amorphous natives (50,000 units per turn max; 50 million worms).
Bases with amorphous natives yield 1 kt of Lerchin Spice per 500 amorphous natives (2,000 units per turn max; 1 million worms).

Tested by Magik; host 194

[edit] Zero Tolerance

Amorphous Worms are NOT allowed on any planet with a ground base for the first 3 turns. If you build a ground base on a planet before turn 3, any Amorphous Worms on the planet will vanish.
If you beam down colonists to a planet on turn 3 or later then the Amorphous Worms will not vanish. Tested with Host 194 - RogerN

[edit] How to kill them

[edit] Immune to Assimilation

[edit] Solorians

  • Wild Amorphous Worms on a surface of a planet will not join a Solorian base on the same planet (PSI > 80).
    • Amorphous Worms on a surface of any planets in 300ly will join via Public Space Port.

[edit] Tips

  • When your base is close to 1 million worms let say 975 000 you pod 25K to a new base, to not waste spice production.
  • Make sure you have enough colonist to sell the spices, you need 2 000 000 of them for 1 000 000 amorphous (1000 colonists per 1 spice produced).

[edit] Research

Do worm attacks cause unhappiness?
Does Crew / Troop / HG get killed by Amorphous when no colonist are present ?
