Eras unlock by total research. Era 2 opens once you possess 8 technologies, Era 3 at 16, and so on every 8, up to Era 6 at 40. Within an unlocked era there are almost no prerequisites between technologies, so you can research them in any order and circle back to skipped techs from earlier eras.
Costs compound. Every finished technology makes the next one cost more: the era's base value times ((5 − N) + (N+1)1.7), rounded, where N is how many technologies you have already researched. The era bases are 2.5, 6.3, 9.4, 12.3, 16.4, and 98.0 for Eras 1 through 6. Because costs depend on your research count, this guide does not list per-tech prices; the Tech-Tree Explorer prices your picks in research order and estimates turns.
Prerequisites are thin. The v1.0 export carries explicit tech-to-tech requirements for only 19 technologies, mostly unit-specialization chains. General tech-to-tech requirements were removed from the game in an earlier update.
Hidden technologies are flagged Hidden in the game files themselves. This guide hides them by default; tick the checkbox to see all 103.
Every technology here comes from the v1.0 game files we parsed ourselves: 264 technologies across 6 eras and 4 quadrants (Defense, Society, Economy, Discovery), with 292 unlock links to real units, improvements, and districts. No guidebook guesses.
What we do not show, on purpose. Per-tech research costs depend on how many technologies you have already finished, so a single number would be wrong; the explorer computes them for your plan instead. A few technologies lack names in the v1.0 data and are shown with their file IDs rather than invented titles. Improvement and unit effects beyond their names are not in the extracted unlock data, so we describe what each tech unlocks and leave the rest to the game.
