Biology Tech Tree

Agriculture Plant

An autonome environment, enhanced by biological organisms, in which food can be grown. It increases the food output of a world by +2 food.

Tungeen Processor

Provides better control for environmental conditions, allowing colonization of the more intolerable areas of the planet. Maximum planetary population is increased by +2.

Retort Centre

A special healing process using a variation of genes, increasing the population growth by +0.1 per day as long as the current population is below the planetary maximum.

Soil Diffusion

Using nano-machines, planetary soil can be enriched and strengthened, increasing the food a farmer can produce by +1. Soil Diffusion will not work in barren, irradiated, and toxic planets.

BC Bomb Class I

Genetically engineered viruses that attack organic lifeforms. Introduced by orbital bombardment, each launch has a 10% chance to kill 1 unit of colonists.

Chemistry Tech Tree

Dagger Missile

Carries a high yield nuclear warhead that inflicts 1 ton of damage.

Tirium Armour

The standard armour of ships. Only the best bonus from all the installed Armour will apply.

Wrap Inductor Class I

Wrap Inductors are self-contained bio-chemical power stations, which support nearly endless energy flow, and is even able to store energy. Supplies energy for a wrap drive of a ship at 0.02 per hour. Can store a maximum of 1 Energy.

Iradium Armour

Ships with this armour have twice the base structure and armour points. The hit rate is multiplied by 1.5. Adds +10 to ground troops' combat strengths. Only the best bonus from all installed armour will apply.

Computers Tech Tree

Ship Computers

Directs starships weapons' fire and is automatically equipped on all ships, increasing chance to hit by +25%. This bonus is lost if the computer is damaged or destroyed. Only the best bonus from all the installed Computers is applied.

Research Laboratory

The Laboratory houses state-of-the-art computers, creating a superior research environment. Generates 5 research points and and increases the research each researcher produces by +1.

Visual Computer

Directs all starship weapons' fire, adding +50 to the chance to hit. Bonus is lost if the computer is destroyed. Only the best bonus from all installed computers will apply.

Moor IFF System

Provides friend-or-foe recognition guidance to missiles. They will retarget the nearest enemy ship if their target is destroyed.

Construction Tech Tree

Star Base

Armed orbital platforms used to service military ships. They are equipped with extensive weaponry, the best available scanner with a +2 scanning range bonus and a shipyard capable of building ships up to 300 tons. The capacity of cloaked hangars at hidden stations is increased to 2.

Army Tower

Lets the colony train troops for ground invasion protection. Begins with 4 marine units, then trains about 1 unit every 5 days, up to the planet's current population. Eliminates morale penalties.

Interceptor Torpedo

Can only target missiles. They will fire defensively against approaching missiles, if not yet fired in that turn. The chance to score a hit is 50%, plus 10% per moving turn.

Structural Booster

Triples the structural integrity of a ship and provides more protection for the ship's drive systems.

Automated Factories

Helps workers build their products. Generates +5 production and increases the production each worker generates by +1.

Missile Base

Holds 300 tons of your best missiles, with unlimited ammo.

Advanced Armour

Advance armour negates armour-piercing effects and reinforces ships, doubling the amount of damage the armour can absorb. This is an upgrade, and applies to your best installed armour.

Settlement Base

Creates a settlement base on another planet in the same star system as the building base.

Space Port

Site for commercial transactions, increasing the money generation of a colony by +50%.

Armour Barracks

Creates tank battalions. It has 2 units when built, and adds 1 unit every 10 days, with a limit of half the planet's population. Eliminates the morale penalty.

Force Fields Tech Tree

Shields Class I

Protects ships from physical and energy attacks. Absorbs up to 15 tons of damage before failing. Regenerates at 0.1% per combat turn. Protection is cumulative with other shields, even if of different class, but shield generators will get weaker with increasing size of the ship they are protecting.

Particle Emitter Class I

A rail gun firing a hyper-velocity projectile. Inflicts 70 tons of damage. Damage is not reduced by range. Has a small chance for critical hits.

ECM Class I

Creates a magnetic pulse, jamming both weapon tracking systems and missile guidance units, adding 30% to the ship's missile evasion. Only the best bonus from all installed ECMs will apply.

Physics Tech Tree

Small Plasma Accelerator

Highly focused, coherent beams of plasma which deliver 150 tons of damage. Has a very small chance for critical hits.

Laser Rifle

A hand-held weapon that increases the combat rating of militia, troops and armour by 10%. The bonus is not cumulative with other rifles.

Scanner Class I

Detects enemy ships. Base detection range is 4 Lj. Ships in transit can be detected in a range of 2 Lj.

Parium Beam

Projects a tetrium stream of charged particles, inflicting 50 tons of damage. Has a small chance for critical hits.

Parium Rifle

A powerful hand-held rifle that increases the combat rating of militia, troops and armour by +20%. The bonus is not cumulative with other rifles.

Scanner Class II

Detects enemy ships. Base detection range is 6 Lj. Ships in transit can be detected in a range of 3 Lj.

Battle Scanner

Increases a ship's chance to hit with beam weapons by +30%. Adds 2 Lj to the galactic scanning range.

Power Tech Tree

Hyperdrive Class VI

Capable of faster than light travel, moving a ship by 7200 Lj/t per hour.

Trillium Bomb

A high-yield orbital bombardment device, engineered to destroy ground forces and colony installations.

Hyperdrive Class VII

Capable of faster than light travel, moving a ship by 9800 Lj/t per hour.

Troop Equipment

Equipment for landing marine units on a planet. Can only be built on planets with a marines barracks.

Hyperdrive Class VIII

Capable of faster than light travel, moving a ship by 16200 Lj/t per hour.

Parium Bomb

A high-yield orbital bombardment device engineered to destroy ground forces and colony installations.

CA Evasion

Increases a ship's maneuverability in combat by +50%.

Wrap Drive Class I

Enables Wrap Drive. Wrap flight can be interrupted at any time, and enables faster travel than by Hyperdrive. Maximum Wrap is 8.

Emergency Hyperdrive

The Emergency Hyperdrive comes with its own fuel and is able to transport a heavily damaged ship to the nearest populated Star System. It is slow, but 100% reliable. The level when it is activated, can be set at Ship Configuration. Activation destroys the unit, so it has to be replaced.
