Plasteel is Crude Oil plus Ore in an Electric Furnace. Unlock it around level 50, pump oil fields, then spend Plasteel on mid-late armor, guns, and Computers.
Plasteel unlocks at Technology level 50. Craft it in an Electric Furnace with 2 Crude Oil and 5 Ore per bar. Treat it like Hexolite one tier earlier: farm the raw mats on the map, smelt continuously, then spend on armor and weapons.
