Guide:Quick Start Guide/Level 8 - What Now?

{{menu}}{{QuickStartMenu}}
The long awaited '''Colonisation Level 8''' has been reached. The [[Federation]] expresses complete faith in you and releases <b>Antimatter Technology</b> in the final colonisation level. So you have new complex buildings at your disposal, the one that will interest you most is the '''[[Research Center]]''':<BR>
<UL>
	<TABLE>
		<TR>
		  <TD class="L">
		  	https://game.en.stne.net/i/m/2/32/0.gif <B>Research Center</B>, buildable on <B>Grass </B>https://game.en.stne.net/i/m/2/0.gif</TD>
		</TR>
	</TABLE>
</UL>

After you have built it on a grass field, you should click on it and look in the long "<B> Research List </B>" to see what you can research. We don't want to give away too much here, but this building will keep you busy for a long time. <BR>
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>

<B>Was that all now?</B><BR>
<BR>
Yes - and <B>No!</B><BR>
<BR>
Yes, if you see STNE as just a strategy and building game.<BR>
<BR>
Further research, which would then enable new buildings or new spaceships, would only delay reaching the ultimate stage of development (everything researched and a lot of big warships).
<BR>
<B>No</B>, because STNE is a [[RPG|Role Playing Game]] (RPG), as it was meant to be.<BR>
<BR>
Now it's your turn at the latest - you should try to bring this game to life for you. Interact with other settlers or the [[NPC|NPCs]], react to their actions, come up with your own actions, surprise us and yourself. <BR>
<BR>
The colonies founded and built, the ships built, the research carried out: all of this is just a basis on which the <B> role play </B> is based. There are many ways to dispel the monotony of collecting ore and deuterium. <BR>
<BR>
The central tool here is the <B>SCN</B>:<BR>
[[Subspace Communications Network]]
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>

There are also the following options:<BR>
<UL>
	<LI>Entry into one of the numerous <B> alliances </B> or founding your own alliance</LI>
	<LI>Participate in various actions or organize them yourself, e.g. <I> Lotto </I> and <I> Light Speed Races</I></LI>
	<LI>Try to entertain other settlers with nice RPGs and nice stories in the SSCN channel <I> "Archive of Historical Documents"</I></LI>
	<LI>Waging war against various NPCs or other settlers / alliances</LI>
	<LI>Search for new planets, move to more strategically located areas of the Delta Quadrant</LI>
	<LI>and much more...</LI>
