Description
Temporal Propulsion Systems Technology manipulates time to achieve propulsion, allowing ships to move across time as well as space.
Benefits
Research output Empire-wide+1.67%
Fleet speed Empire-wide+6.33%
Strategy notes
Temporal Propulsion Systems develops the Propulsion discipline within Fast Strike Fleet. Use propulsion, precise energy weapons, and tactical sensing to choose engagements and destroy priority targets quickly. Its immediate value is +60% Speed; +20% Research; +16% Speed. The principal counterpressure is that fuel interdiction, layered defenses, ambushes, and forced prolonged battles erode its speed advantage.
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 Propulsion 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.
