Military Perks

Military Perks are categorized into groups of three, separated by a Specialization every fourth tier. Jump to Specializations

After each military tier you will get one point you can invest into an additional set of skills that will give you bonuses to various stats or unlock new powerful features. There will be an equal amount of perks than there are military tiers so you will be able to max them out. Your military perk choices will define your play style rather than how fast you will be able to progress. The perk choices that are available to you are also grouped by your progression in the game so it is not possible to accidentally skill something that prevents you from progressing at an acceptable place. In the worst case scenario you will have to slightly adapt your play style.

Group 1 (MT1 to MT3)

Backups
The decision to store a copy of all your data and scientific progress turns out to save a tremendous amount of time in the long run. Starting from the next military tier your modules will not be fully reset but instead set to tier 1 with their level maximized.

Group 2 (MT5 to MT7)

Duplicates

Starting from the next military tier your modules will not be set to tier 1 but instead set to tier 5 with their level maximized.
