__TOC__
== Description ==
Thomas made the headlines for his daring expeditions to Earth's most remote locations and joined the Mars Colonization Project to unveil the Red Planet's terra incognita. He climbed Mount Everest in his early 20s, explored the harsh landscapes of Antarctica and the Sahara Desert, and mapped out previously undiscovered underwater caves. The mountainous landscape and harsh conditions of Mars offer the perfect challenge for this seasoned explorer.
== Specialization ==
*Silicates Boost - Increases your Silicates production by 1 for every new 3 Silicates you start producing.
== Skills ==
*Explore - Explore a Location for a power cost. The further away the location is from your nearest city, the higher the power cost.
*Mine Resources - Select a Resource deposit. Mine 5 of that Resource, with a bonus of +1 for large deposits and +2 for gigantic deposits. This skill costs power equal to the distance to the chosen resource deposit.
*Supply Station - Construct Supply Station for free.
**Supply Station - Exploration missions can be undertaken from here. Must be built on a Planet Location. Can be placed on planet locations that are not controlled by a city.
== Gameplay ==
Since Thomas is an early game leader, his Supply Station Building can be used for a fast push for the poles of the planet to enable an early temperature rise, by the use of nukes or black sand. For every other occasion, the Supply Station Building has limited usefulness. Thomas Mine Resources Ability is great for a fast push for critical resources in the early game, but in general the focus in the early game should be steady exploration. The best scenario for Thomas is the "Red Way" scenario, since his specialization can boost the late game income of silicates.
