Ammo Factory

[Saltshaker]

What technology (/technologies) and/or other prereqs do I need to build an Ammo Factory?

[AranwenL]

its industry which i believe you get from the start so the biggest issue should be discovering it as youre unlocking things and cluttering up the possible unlocks.

if you look like youre in a safe area you could switch to full discovery for a while and see if you can find it before continuing to research.

It's a level 3 tech, so even with a low tech start you will discover it during the opening phase of the game. I recommend researching it very early, right after the solar power plant. Producing ammunition in the workshop is very inefficient resource-wise and can seriously hamper your growth in the early game.

You'll need to unlock the Economic council to have the chance of discovering and then researching it.

For a level 1 ammo factory, you'll need 1000 workers, 1 machine, 500 metal and 170 IP for 2 rounds in order to build it.

It also requires an upkeep (at 100% production) of 10 energy, 50 metal and 600 workers. So it would be wise to make sure you have a decent metal income first before building it.
