Starting Amounts

Nothing! All paths will add up to the equivalent total.

Exploration Era

A few worlds have an unexpected bounty of delta dust, be in greater density to start or fortutious geology.

Feral drones generally left G-type stars alone.

Exp-8) Posthuman Footsteps

Observation Posts (+ 100 CIP, + 10 SP, SP limit for options increased by +5)

Posthuman seed-probes scattered all across known space and were often used as markers for development - or looted for resources.
