Strategy notes
A paid Contained Fusion Reactor supplies 250 base local power using 50 workers, 12 credits, 8 fuel and 1 rare mineral per hour. Existing generation, research, or defence benefits still apply through their ordinary bounded rules.
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 Energy 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. Complete every prerequisite before adding research progress. Generation is finite, local, staffed, and funded; this research does not transmit power between worlds. Unlocks paid Contained Fusion Reactor construction; ordinary funding, staffing, integrity, and work caps apply.
