Research Lab
The Research Lab unlocks the research tree and accelerates breakthroughs — every tech in Per Regna starts here.
Mechanics
- Required to start and progress research on a colony
- Higher levels reduce time for projects queued on that world
Special capabilities
Research network
- From Realm 2 onward, Colonial Administration links additional planet labs into the research network (the lab where research runs is always included)
- Spread labs on productive worlds rather than maxing a single backwater
- Links with Engineering Lab and economy buildings that fund upkeep
Strategy
- Build early on every core planet; upgrade before expensive Realm jumps
- Research Colonial Administration when running multiple labs
- See Research hub for tech paths affecting Fleet and Ships and Buildings
Lore
Within these facilities, thousands of scientists analyze alien materials, simulate advanced propulsion systems, and test new military technologies.
Many of the greatest scientific breakthroughs in the history of the galaxy began in humble colonial laboratories.
