good to know…

Build:

  • put a Research on ISI project (cost: 1R; gain: 1C)
  • build Culture node on Capella (cost: 2C, 1P)
  • replace research node with Culture node on Hupyria (cost: 2C, 1P)
  • build ships on Romulus with remaining production (14 ships, if I count correctly)

Command:

  1. Launching Tal Diann Security Forces project
  2. Launching Romulan Distruptors project
  3. Launching Continuing Committee project
  4. Launching Orbital Defense Grid project
    (I’m positive that each project starts with a research already on it)
  5. Ship on Romulus enters warp

Wait, research starts with a research on it? Is that a Romulan thing or in general? Have we been playing like this so far?

Edit: sorry, I’ve seen the tech now, understood.
