Well, after playing Tiberian Sun again and seeing the web site suggestion it made me think, did I ever use silos, and to be honest, no I didn't.

Me too. I always build enough to store at least 25000Cr.
Sometimes i even build more, so that one silo can be destroyed without losing a lot of tiberium.

Heh, I do that base expansion strategy too.

I use them quite rarely (voted "sometimes" to the poll), if I want to store more money I usually build more refineries. Also, I rarely have more than 1000 money because I always build my base and some armies as fast as possible (I build units all the time if I just have the money for it, because my mod's AI kills my units about as fast as I can make them. And if I get enough base defenses so that I don't have to build more units, I start spamming aircraft).

And I use normal 2x2 power plants to expand my base.

I made the tiberium worth more, so to cope with that I made the refinery and silo able to hold like 240 "bails" and the silo 200.

I just use the silo's to expand, so I made them able to be built 10 adjacent spaces from another structure
