clone labs (basic research) The clone labs extend your population growth by 10%. The clones are not perfectly elaborated so with a special technique you have to connect the minds of one manpower at your planet to your clones on each ship. Each ship you build needs one extra manpower the extra connected manpower stay on your homeworld, so if a ship is destroyed in battle you would only loose the usual manpower (and points) Researchtime: 3 d Needed research: science recycle methods   —> Forum Topic about this ship limsky: "if you plan to build the labs think about this before: Quote: ------------------------- each ship you build needs one extra manpower ------------------------- (coz you cannot change it back)" What is your expert advice? To get that extra 10% or not? Is it worthwhile? wizz: you get roughly 110% manpower if you play expensive ships for the rest of the game... but you will have effective 55% manpower if you want to play cheap ships... (every fighter will cost 2mp afterwards) so you get in advantage in some tactics but more then 2/3 of possible tactics are no more effective for you... i mayself decided to leave it out atm but i think a dozen players allready invented it, maybe they could state their experiences... ? limsky: Someone build a shipyard there. Is he smart or dumb? Captain Starlight: You are kidding! God: Very smart!! i was there for 1 day and i made around 2 thousend point from people attacking my fleet with small fleets Blazedem0n: actually that is very silly...... u will lose the shipyard very soon nikolas: what knowledge is needed to create clone-labs? how is this lab build? It doesn't appears in the manual or tech-tree, why ? is this a secret only-masters weapon ? Captain Starlight: it is a research that you start by going to the planet. Look in the forum new ships and game updates. _________________ _________________________**** by now, everybody can research it, (it is in the tec-tree now) admin: "kamekaze6: do clone labs increase the population once or do they increase it again and again?? Liderant: only 1 darklim. And all ships cost 1 more... That is the weak point " darklim: Thanks to this research! I only build expensive ships, like the Cloak Generator and can build a small fleet!!! darkwolf: i have a question regarding clone labs, maybe is a bug :)26 uh.. i researched clone labs a couple of days ago.. now everytime i build a probe it cost me 1 mp, when the probe is finished or destroyed, it give me back my mp (no points are won or lost)... this is not normal, is it? weird space... :smile: darklim: Every ships cost 1 MP more :)20 I think including Probes admin: yes jellez: can you get 10.000 mp power?????? Weylyn: NO, 5000+20% is NOT 10000 blackmagic: obviously a n00b :grin: BladeTech: LOL. 10,000 mp would be awesome. maybe if the mp needed for ships be x5!! jellez: 10.000 mp. that wout be cool
