Kharaa chambers....help?

Just to make sure, you can have any number of Kharaa chambers as long as you have the resources and space to accomodate them, right?

When the manual mentions level 1-3, does that mean 1-3 hives? or 1-3 of the same chamber? I read manual as thorough as possible, but there's no key legend or list of naming conventions. So...it's a guessing game for me.

    As many as you can support yes. But as long as you have at least three, you have level three upgrades.

    I'd disagree, you'd want at least 3 of each and probably more for their other abilities.

    ex.
    Place a defensive chamber to heal the turrets and nearby friendlies close in a marine base

    Usually when I am builder, I place three chambers of the same type in a hidden location so that the aliens will always have three upgrades.  Then I place others as is.

    A very good idea is to place movement chambers in each hive.  That way, you can quickly jump between hives if the marines attack you.  Plus, that's a total of three movement chambers, which instantly gives you the top-level upgrades.

    There is also a limit on how many of each type of chamber you can have in an area, unless you're getting spammy this shouldn't be a problem.

    I tend to place chambers for there effects (teleportation, regenation, observation) rather than for there upgrades (makes me want to scream when I see 3 movement chambers sat next to an un-defended hive).
