Strategy notes
Advanced Shipyards develops the Production discipline within Industrial Megastructure Empire. Concentrate minerals, automation, and orbital capacity into unmatched construction throughput and system-scale works. Its immediate value is +25% Production, +25% Space Production; +5% Research; +10% Wages. The principal counterpressure is that its fixed yards, long supply chains, and visible projects are vulnerable to blockade and sabotage.
Player hints
This tier begins to define an empire. Compare its resource demand with the other technologies competing for your laboratories. Favor this technology when its Production benefits reinforce your current economy, fleets, or frontier. Pause the branch if its expected RP per tick is too diluted or its resource costs would stall higher-priority projects.
