Description
Neutrino Detection Technology enables the sensing of neutrinos, nearly massless particles that pass through matter, revealing hidden processes.
Benefits
Sensor strength Empire-wide+3.72%
Research surveillance success Empire-wide+8.28%-
Precision Fleet strategy
Strategy notes
Neutrino Detection Technology 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 +3% Sensing; +20% Tech Spy Success Probability; +6% Sensing. The principal counterpressure is that counterintelligence, deception, compartmentalization, and cheap decoys can waste its expensive collection network.
Player hints
This is a specialization milestone. Reaching it reveals stronger combinations, but broad tier-three investment will slow every capstone. 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. Unlocks Precision strategy (+30% sensing, +10% firepower, -10% shields).
