RE: Any disadvantages to Nationalizing assets?

<r> It seems like working ruins which have artifacts makes it more likely for you discover them. That's just my experience, though. I'm not sure if the game actually works that way.<br/>

RE: Colonists and New Zone Q's

<t> If Commerce is your highest profile, you should have stratagems that give you free private investment in the zone. I find that, in new zones, private investment will usually be directed to QoL improvements first, although you might want to exploit all of the available resources with public ...

RE: Do recruits cost money?

<t> There are some advantages to leaving them as recruits. First, they are more flexible, since you don’t have to know ahead of time what type of unit/model they should be. If you recruit them with envirosuits and then later upgrade them to combat armour, it will cost you a lot more than recruiting ...

RE: Any reason to prefer Light Infantry to Machine Guns?

Infantry are better at reducing unrest, since that’s all about numbers, not power. There are also a number of postures that only apply to infantry.

RE: Any disadvantages to Nationalizing assets?

<t> With the Transport Hub, the only real disadvantage is that you won’t be able to upgrade it or build a truck station in that hex. Since you’ve already got another truck station nearby, this limitation might not matter, in which case you can just take the free logistics points and not worry about ...

Happiness penalties due to casualties

<t> Is it possible to see the penalties to happiness / loyalty that are applied to a zone due to casualties? I've tried hovering over the happiness and loyalty values in the zone but I've never seen any reference to casualties.<br/>
<br/>
I suppose it's possible that I just hadn't taken enough ...

RE: Applied Science Crazy Cost of 1% progress

<t> These techs aren't any more complicated than the binary techs. It's also not really accurate to call them "slow". The point is that they give you an incremental bonus for each % improvement. You're not necessarily intended to ever "fully" research them. <br/>
<br/>
