Description
Neutron Star Matter Technology uses matter from neutron stars, known for its density and energy potential, as a fuel source.
Benefits
Fuel output Empire-wide+5%
Space defence Empire-wide+2.14%
Wages Empire-wide+0.86%
Strategy notes
Neutron Star Matter develops the Fuel discipline within Resource Ascendancy. Turn superior surveying, extraction, refining, and energy conversion into strategic control of scarce materials. Its immediate value is +35% Fuel Production; +15% Space Defence; +6% Wages. The principal counterpressure is that extraction complexes are immobile, power hungry, and exposed to raiding or market isolation.
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 Fuel 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.
