Base statistics

Property	Value
Structural integrity	125,000
Shield	800
Attack	1,750
Speed	12,000
Cargo capacity	1,500
Fuel coefficient	250

These are base values before research. Structural integrity is not battle hull: combat uses one tenth of integrity. Fuel is a coefficient for the flight calculation, not a fixed price per trip.

Construction

Resource	Base cost per unit
Metal	75,000
Crystal	75,000
Deuterium	30,000

Requirements: Shipyard 8.

Material Physics reduces the resource price. Use the construction screen for the modified quote and timer. Ship construction also costs Credits from this galaxy’s wallet; check the full quote before ordering.

Use and limitations

Laser Technology adds an extra Battlecruiser attack bonus when Weapon Technology 1 is completed. No exclusive focus is needed. Its small hold can limit loot even after a successful battle; consider cargo support.

Drive research modifies fleet speed. Its bonus grows by completed five-level research tiers, not fixed percentage points each level. Hyperspace Technology modifies cargo.
