#Homeworld 2 game types plus
Here's a table of the technologies available, plus the time they take to research. Note that the more ships you have researching a single technology together, the faster that technology is researched. In the Research Manager, use the CTRL or SHIFT keys to select multiple Researchers, then double-click the technology to research. More than 1 Research Ship can research a specific technology at once. So, 6 linked Research Ships become 1 ship with 6 times the armour of a single ship.
Separate research ships will link together to form a larger, composite ship, with better armour. You can build up to a maximum of 6 of these ships on most multi-player maps you start off with 1. Which is why it's useful to have as many Research Ships around, as fleet resources allow. Research Ship - Cost: 700 RUs Mass: 11 000 tons Armour: 4 500 (27 000 with 6 Research Ships) Firepower: - Coverage: - Weapons: - Special Action: - Velocity: 280 m/s Maneuverability: low Build Time: 60 seconds Availability: Mission 1 Without new technologies, you can't build new ships. So, enemies could fake up a fleet (using Strike Craft as opposed to Frigates, say) and move it towards you this psyches you out, maybe you will move ships to the "threat" in panic, allowing the enemy to take advantage of his diversion and launch a true attack somewhere else. Of course, unless you have your own ships nearby, you can't actually see what those enemy ships are - all you see are red dots. Sensors Array - Cost: 800 RUs Mass: 2 900 tons Armour: 6 000 Firepower: - Coverage: - Weapons: - Special Action: - Velocity: 280 m/s Maneuverability: low Build Time: 80 seconds Availability: Mission 14 This unit allows you to see every single ship on the map, except for cloaked ships. Not having at least a handful of these is a big no-no. The ability to see through cloak fields, though, is the main reason to build 'em - in multi-player, your enemies will try anything to kill you, and cloaked ships are very popular. Proximity Sensor - Cost: 50 RUs Mass: 40 tons Armour: 800 Firepower: - Coverage: - Weapons: - Special Action: - Velocity: 1 000 m/s Maneuverability: very high Build Time: 6 seconds Availability: Mission 10 Better than Scouts for scouting, since they are cheaper, just as fast, can spot cloaked ships, and don't need fuel.
