Does anybody have a list of the guaranteed techs in MOO? I'd like to know all of them, but of particular interest to me is Trilithium (unlimited range). Are you always guaranteed to get it?

Thanks,

Hi Dathon,

No, no race is guaranteed to get Thorium cells (unlimited range).

The only techs you are guaranteed for research are ones in a tier by themselves:
- Deflector 2
- High energy focus
- Neutronium armor (x 4 armor)
- Complete terraforming (terraforming+120)

Silicoids don't (or rather shouldn't) get research choices for factory cleanup techs, hostile colony base techs, waste cleanup techs, and soil enrichment / adv. soil enrichment / atmospheric terraforming. However in OSG 3(?) advanced eco restore was a choice, and I have seen adv. soil enrichment too.

Anyway, Silicoids (with limited choices) get more compulsory techs in Construction and Planetology - for example Improved industrial tech 9, Terraforming+10.

Even the Psilons with more research choices are never guaranteed to get Thorium cells.

Cheers,
Factoid.
