Hi all,

I was combing through the Tech Tree and am interested in knowing where to allocate my Research efforts with regards to improving my ships engines.

I'm weighing my options of working up the Propulsion tech tree vs. the Quantum Engines route. Can anyone enlighten with regards to some pros/cons of either option?

However, you'd be better getting lower tech engines, so you can focus on other things as well.

Seems a bit wacky to me. WAD?

Mixing efficient and normal engine types stacks their defensive bonuses. Its certainly a bug, and maybe one we can fix for a future game. Its gamey and I suggest people avoid using it.
