Warp Gate

The Warp Gate is a moon-only dimensional gateway that lets fleets travel instantly between paired gates — revolutionizing empire mobility in Per Regna.

Mechanics

Moon-only — plan moon infrastructure before investing
Requires a paired Warp Gate at the destination; unlinkable gates do nothing
Each use triggers a cooldown; higher levels reduce cooldown duration

Special capabilities

Paired instant travel

Link two gates to open a corridor bypassing normal flight time
Cooldown between jumps decreases as the gate levels up
Ideal for redeploying defenders or staging surprise offensives

Strategy

Build pairs between your main fleet world and border moons
Combine with Radar Station stealth limits — inbound moon launches stay off enemy planet scans (moon launches)
Protect gate moons; losing a gate strand isolates fleets

Lore

Warp Gates generate temporary dimensional corridors that bypass conventional hyperspace travel.

These corridors allow fleets to cross vast interstellar distances instantly.

Only the most advanced civilizations possess the technology to construct and maintain these gates.
