Crystal Mine

What it does

Produit le cristal des laboratoires, des propulseurs, des sondes et des systèmes de vaisseaux avancés.

Le cristal devient vite le goulot d'étranglement des laboratoires, des propulseurs, des sondes et des vaisseaux avancés. Une base solide en cristal rend la recherche future prévisible.

What it enables

Soutient les recherches, le déblocage de vaisseaux et les infrastructures de haute technologie.

Cost for level 1

Building time depends on the planet’s Robotics Factory and Nanite Factory levels and on the universe speed, so it is not a fixed number.

Cost per level

Each level multiplies the previous cost by ×1.5, so each further level gets steadily more expensive the further you push it.

Requirements

None — available from the start, with no research or building gate.

How each race builds it

The four races share the same building rules but not the same hardware — each one names and renders it differently, and applies its own combat multipliers from its race profile.

Terran Crystal Mine

Terran Directorate

Standard Directorate infrastructure with broad operational reliability.

Living Crystal Vein

Auralith Concord

Crystalline infrastructure grown around resonant mineral channels.

Brood Crystal Mine

Varkesh Brood

Organic infrastructure grown from biomass, nerve clusters and hardened carapace.

Assembly Crystal Mine

Synthera Assembly

Machine infrastructure built from modular processors, forges and self-checking control loops.
