Space Age: Space Hub

Dear Kings and Queens,

Humanity’s cosmic journey has reached a turning point! With the secrets of Titan unlocked, we now stand on the brink of our greatest leap yet: the ability to travel beyond our solar system! Welcome to the next chapter in our epic saga:Space Age: Space Hub.

Space Age: Space Hub launches on September 4th.

The Plot

In this new era, humanity will harness the power of advanced A.I. to develop ground-breaking technologies, such as cryogenic capsules for deep space travel at Faster Than Light (FTL) speeds! These advancements mark the beginning of our journey to explore distant galaxies and establish our presence beyond the stars. TheSpace Hub serves as the central nexus of this endeavor, connecting us to the vast expanse of the galaxy.

But beware! Not everyone is ready to embrace this bold new future. A faction known as the System Wardens has emerged, fearing that humanity's reach into the unknown will invite dangers beyond our control. But the progress in technology and exploration cannot be halted. The first blueprints of cryogenic capsules have been created, and with the help of our advanced A.I., we are on the verge of realizing FTL travel — a major breakthrough for interstellar exploration!

What's New in Space Age: Space Hub?

	Goods Buildings Upgrade: Goods buildings will now be able to produce the new special resource - Dark Matter! This resource is essential in this new age, and will be required for upgrading the Cosmic Catalyst, among many other critical uses. Read on to find out more!
	Enhanced Life Support: While Life Support has been underutilized in previous ages, it now plays a crucial role. If your Life Support status is green, there will be a chance to produce4x special resources from goods buildings in your colony, following a similar functionality to the goods in Cultural Settlements. The same bonus applies to exploration sites, making Life Support management more rewarding than ever. Larger Life Support buildings will now require special resources to be constructed, adding a new layer of strategy. Only the first Life Support building in your Colony will be exempt from this cost. This change means that maintaining and upgrading your infrastructure is even more interconnected and meaningful!
	Increased Resource Demands:Creating a Space Hub is expensive. To keep up with the production capabilities of event buildings and other advancements, the amount of goods and resources required for the tech tree has been significantly increased. This change ensures that the progression through the Space Age: Space Hub remains challenging and engaging!

The Space Hub Colony

Your Space Hub becomes accessible as soon as you unlock the first technology on theSpace Age: Space Hub Research Tree. This advancement triggers the full independence of your Titan colony and opens up the galaxy for exploration!

Keep in mind that with this progression, your colony on Titan will become unavailable, although the campaign map and story quests from Titan will still be available for completion. Even though direct access to Titan's colony will end, you can continue to produce its era's goods by unlocking the Synthesizers on the Research Tree

As with previous Space Ages, the production of the new era's goods will take place in your Space Hub Colony. In this era, you will need to gather the special resource Dark Matter to produce the goods unique to this age. Make sure you are up to date on the campaign map to access the new age's Exploration Sites, where you can gather the majority ofDark Matter.

Great Buildings

In Space Age: Space Hub, two monumental Great Buildings will shape your journey to intergalactic dominance. These legendary structures not only offer powerful boosts to your city and military but also symbolize humanity's mastery of the cosmos. Build and harness their potential to lead your civilization to unparalleled heights!

Name:	Stellar Warship 5x3	Cosmic Catalyst 4x4
Image:
Description:	The Stellar Warship is a relic of humanity's intergalactic dominance, once piloted only by the most elite captains. Though it no longer soars through the cosmos, its legacy continues to shape the future. Now repurposed, this mighty vessel serves as a powerful Great Building, offering invaluable support to your forces. In its new role, The Stellar Warship provides a steady supply of units, much like the legendary Alcatraz, ensuring your armies are always ready for battle. Additionally, it grants boosts to both attack and defense, empowering your forces on the offensive and protecting your city from incoming threats. With The Stellar Warship at your command, your military might will be unmatched, securing your place as a dominant force in the galaxy.	The Cosmic Catalyst is a marvel of engineering and ingenuity, a structure that many have attempted to create but only a select few have mastered. As the second cornerstone of intergalactic dominance, it stands as a testament to human ambition and technological prowess. Few know how to build it, and even fewer understand the intricacies of operating such a magnificent device. In its powerful role, The Cosmic Catalyst provides a critical hit chance for your attacking units, stacking with the existing boost from the Arctic Orangery Great Building. This allows your forces to strike with devastating precision, giving you a decisive edge in battle. Additionally, The Cosmic Catalyst contributesGuild Goods directly to your guild treasury, strengthening your collective resources and solidifying your guild's influence across the galaxy. With The Cosmic Catalyst in your city, you hold the key to unparalleled power and strategic advantage, making it an essential asset in your quest for galactic supremacy.
