Artifacts (or Library Nodule Artifact, as they are known to the Progenitors) are mysterious and unexplained Progenitor devices sometimes discovered on Planet. If you can find an artifact and return it to one of your bases, you will have several options:

  • link it to a Network Node if the base has one, and receive a free random technology breakthrough
  • use it to speed the production of a Secret Project or Unit Prototype by 50 minerals
  • save it to use later.

Artifacts can be captured from other players. A lone artifact can be captured by any player without diplomatic penalty.

Artifacts which are used to explore pods have a 50% chance of vanishing without a trace.
