Research

Overview

Day 1 researches available

Research allows you to mobilise new units and upgrade existing ones. You can access the research panel via the player profile.

• New research becomes available almost every day. Your research tree is specific to your nation's doctrine, and favours different unit types early on.
• Upgrades are hierarchical. You cannot research late-game upgrades until you research the pre-requisites.
• You may cancel ongoing research at any time, note that you will be refunded any amount of resources paid.

If you are researching an upgrade for an existing unit, you can click the 'i' button for the selected research to see how the unit's stats, cost, etc. will change.

Military Doctrines

Your nation's doctrine is key to what research you will likely prioritize during the game.

• Eastern: Research doctrine that favors Tanks, Mobile Artillery and Helicopter Gunships.
• European: Research doctrine that favors Anti-Tank Vehicles, Mechanized Infantry and Strike Fighter Aircraft .
• Western: Research doctrine that favors Armored Fighting Vehicles, Air Mobile Infantry, and Attack Helicopters.
