Technology

Technology reflects the advancement of your faction through new ideas and techniques, allowing you to construct advanced buildings, new unit types or greatly improved equipment. A faction can develop technology along three paths of specialisation, each consisting of three interlocking modules. While each technology has its own inherent benefits, researching all technologies within a module has an overall effect that is greater than the sum of its parts.
