General Research Question

from Sins Forums

How do most people approach research? Balance between civ and military or go heavily into one or the other? Also, how do you get cruisers? I can't see anything in my research trees that seems to unlock them.

There's no unlock for the cruiser "class", just individual ship hulls. They're always buildable from your frigate shipyard :)

When you select your frigate factory, there should be two yellow buttons in it's menu. One of them is for frigates, and the other should be for your 4 Cruiser options. These cruisers are "unlocked" by researching their respective designs in the military tech tree of their race. Hope that helps!

P.S. Hover your cursor over the grayed out ship designs in your research menu to see if they say they allow production of a cruiser, or a frigate.
