  • A player with ships in a delta, gamma or epsilon wormhole may research a technology from the “For” effect. Those ships will not be destroyed.
    • If a system contains both a delta and gamma wormhole and an alpha or beta wormhole, such as the active wormhole nexus, then ships in that system will be destroyed.
  • A player must still meet the prerequisites for the technology they research.
    • A player may exhaust a planet with a technology specialty to ignore a prerequisite on a technology as normal. This planet will ready at the end of the agenda phase.
  • Ground forces in the space area of a system containing an alpha or beta wormhole will be removed due to lack of capacity after the ships in that system are destroyed; those ground forces will not trigger any “destroyed” effects. Fighters will be destroyed, and will trigger any “destroyed” effects.

Anti-Intellectual Revolution

  • If Anti-Intellectual Revolution is in play as a law, players who research a technology will destroy a ship due to Anti-Intellectual Revolution before they destroy ships in systems containing alpha or beta wormholes. As such, they may choose a ship in a system containing an alpha or beta wormhole to destroy for Anti-Intellectual Revolution.

Anti-Intellectual Revolution+The Terror Between

  • If the Vuil’raith player has their flagship, The Terror Between, in a system containing an alpha or beta wormhole, and they choose to destroy it for Anti-Intellectual Revolution, then they will not capture the other ships in that system that are destroyed by Wormhole Research.
  • If the Vuil’raith player has their flagship, The Terror Between, in a system containing an alpha or beta wormhole, and they choose to destroy another ship with capacity, they must resolve capacity before Wormhole Research destroys any ships. Any fighters they remove due to capacity will not be captured when ships are destroyed for Wormhole Research.

Floating Factory I / Floating Factory II

  • The Saar player’s Floating Factories cannot be destroyed by Wormhole Research.
