Description
Siege Industrial Base sustains heavy ordnance without displacing every civilian order. It is an optional synthesis between Industrial Megastructure Empire and Missile Siege Fleet, not a gate on either capstone.
Benefits
Ship production Empire-wide+4%
Strategy notes
Siege Industrial Base develops the Production discipline within Cross-Path Synthesis. This synthesis combines Industrial Megastructure Empire with Missile Siege 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.
