Dear Kings and Queens
Our newest era is on its way - introducing Space Age Titan!
| Space Age Titan starts on the 10th of July! |
The human race has made leaps in energy, transportation, and sustenance, but the complexity of chemical reactions and their potential applications remains a boundless frontier. Our next grand challenge takes us to Saturn's moon Titan, a cornucopia of hydrocarbons, waiting to be harnessed and utilized to fuel revolutionary technologies.
Titan promises to enhance our understanding of chemical science, providing us with tools to reshape our technological landscape. The creation of new laboratories and chemical facilities on this alien moon signifies the birth of a new era, an age where the Periodic Table expands beyond our wildest dreams. These developments lay the foundations for creating real humanoid robots, although it remains a distant but achievable vision.
As this age progresses, we must expect opposition. Competitors will strive to claim our discoveries, battling fiercely for patents, aiming to wield these new technologies for their benefit. Their impatience may lead them down a perilous path, eager to develop the first humanoid robot without perfecting the underpinning technology.
Welcome, pioneers, to the Space Age Titan. The journey is challenging, the stakes are high, but the rewards promise to reshape our future as a species. Step into this age, and let us together unlock the mysteries and potential that Titan holds.
Space Age Titan age brings you:

The outpost on Titan is accessible as soon as you unlock the first technology on the Space Age Titan Research Tree. This advancement gives independence to your Jupiter Moon colony and simultaneously opens up Titan for exploration.
Keep in mind that with this progression, the outpost on Jupiter Moon will close. However, the campaign map and story quests from Jupiter Moon will still be available for completion. Even though direct access to Jupiter Moon's outpost ends, you can continue to produce its era's goods through unlocking the Synthesizer buildings on the Research Tree.
Once in the Space Age Titan, you'll find your new colony easily accessible via the same Spaceport located at the outskirts of your city.

As in the previous Space Ages, the new era's goods will be produced in your Colony. You'll need to gather the special resource Crystallized Hydrocarbons in order to produce the goods from this age. Ensure you are up to date on the campaign map so you can use the new age's Exploration Sites to gather Crystallized Hydrocarbons.
To boost the productivity of your Colony, ensure to monitor your Life Support! Building sufficient Life Support buildings in your Colony will substantially decrease the cost of producing your new age's goods.
One special change for this Colony is, that you don't need to place any roads! All buildings will work, no matter where you place them.
New Great Buildings:
There will be three new Great Buildings introduced in this Age, each 4x4 in size and with the following boosts:
| Saturn VI Gate PEGASUS (4x4) | Saturn VI Gate CENTAURUS (4x4) | Saturn VI Gate HYDRA (4x4) |
|---|---|---|

| Existing Great Building Name | Level | Effect | Strength |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deal Castle | 100 | Fierce Resistance | 75% |
| Zeus | 100 | Military Boost | 75% |
| Terracotta Army | 100 | Advanced Tactics | 65% |
| New Great Building Name | Level | Effect | Strength |
|---|---|---|---|
| Saturn VI Gate PEGASUS | 15 | Fierce Resistance | 75% |
| Saturn VI Gate CENTAURUS | 19 | Military Boost | 76% |
| Saturn VI Gate HYDRA | 22 | Advanced Tactics | 66% |
In addition to this power up, the new GBs also each have a secondary boost, as per the above table! For maximum visual appeal, place the new GBs next to each other and see they will look like the landing strip to a space port that is launches ships into space! Please note there is no additional benefit to this other than the cool aesthetic.
New Units:
All of the new units have the Keen Eye ability!
| Icebreaker | Permafrost Drone | Pressurizer | Overclock Orbiter | Molecular Enforcer | Champion |

Finally, to address some of your concerns:
We acknowledge your anticipation for an innovative game mechanic, and we share in that ambition! Our commitment to deliver quality content remains unwavering. However, with the Space Ages, we've opted for a more measured approach. We will instead pursue the opportunity to refine and enhance the entire endgame experience, rather than partially updating the individual Space Ages.
While this is a considerable endeavor, we're confident this approach will provide a more engaging and enjoyable gaming experience. Thank you for your understanding and continued support, and please do share your thoughts about the new era and its content. We're looking forward to your feedback!
Thank you for playing Forge of Empires!
Yours,
The Forge of Empires Team
