Description
Graviton Detection Systems Technology enables the detection of graviton particles, which are associated with gravitational waves and massive objects.
Benefits
Sensor strength Empire-wide+4%
Research surveillance success Empire-wide+4%
Strategy notes
Graviton Detection Systems develops the Sensing discipline within Reconnaissance and Espionage. Win information asymmetry through persistent observation, covert access, and fleets that act on fresh intelligence. Its immediate value is +8% Sensing; +2% Sensing; +10% Tech Spy Success Probability. The principal counterpressure is that counterintelligence, deception, compartmentalization, and cheap decoys can waste its expensive collection network.
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 Sensing 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.
