Re: Hyperion Gamma - More on Epochs

I have devised a more consistent method of switching between Epochs in Hyperion. Basically, once you start researching a technology that belongs to the 2nd or 3rd Epoch, it is time to switch. I've identified the Epochs by either a {2} or {3} after the technology name in the technology research dialog. Also, when you look at a technology in the Manowitz section, you will see its Epoch Number right after the technology so that you know which Epoch the technology belongs to.

This should help players plan which technologies to research and let them know when to switch to the next Epoch UNIT.DAT file.

Here is the technology list for Epochs 2 and 3 organized by Technology Tree:

Epoch 2:
Microbiology
8 - Wetware {2}
12 - Viral DNA {2}
13 - Dormant Virus {2}
16 - Spore Delivery {2}
17 - Necrosis {2}
23 - Hostile Environment Mastery {2}
24 - Neurocellular Surgery {2}
Physics
44 - Advanced Nanotechnology {2}
45 - Neumonic Armor {2}
46 - Polymorphonic Carbon {2}
47 - Discontinuity Field Generator {2}
Psychosocial Engineering
62 - Symbiot Psychology {2}
65 - Indoctrination {2}
66 - Liturgical Ritual {2}
67 - Holy Warriors {2}
Applied Technology
69 - Space Dreadnought {2}
74 - PTS Meson Amphibiouscraft {2}
77 - Jump Space Torpedo Bomber {2}
83 - Starbase MK M {2}
84 - Guided Missile Amphibiouscraft {2}
91 - PTS Meson Cannon {2}
94 - Mastiff Shock Tank {2}
93 - Grim Reaper Tank {2}
98 - Direwolf Fusion Tank {2}
99 - Violator Assault Gun {2}
101 - Demolition {2}
102 - Raider Stealthship {2}
109 - Genetic Warrior Legion {2}
110 - Power Hover Tank {2}

Epoch 3:
Microbiology
9 - Cyberpilot {3}
Physics
38 - Advanced Hovertech {3}
48 - Discontinuity Beam {3}
51 - Cloaking Shields {3}
Applied Technology
78 - Space Marines {3}
82 - Doomstar {3}
100 - Pestulator Bio Artillery {3}
103 - Xyll Warbeast {3}
104 - Rocket Legion {3}
107 - Ranger Legion {3}
