Description
Rapid Assembly Flotillas pairs mobile fabrication with fast fleet redeployment. It is an optional synthesis between Industrial Megastructure Empire and Fast Strike Fleet, not a gate on either capstone.
Benefits
Ship production Empire-wide+4%
Strategy notes
Rapid Assembly Flotillas develops the Production discipline within Cross-Path Synthesis. This synthesis combines Industrial Megastructure Empire with Fast Strike Fleet without replacing either core path. Its immediate value is +4% ship production throughput. The principal counterpressure is that cross-path investment delays a focused capstone and exposes two different resource dependencies.
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 Production 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.
