Planetary Invasion in Alpha 3

In the early Alphas build planetary invasion was unlocked very early in the tch tree.  In the new alpha I noticed its now a much later unlock (rightly so to in my opinion).  However last night I'm sure I researched the tech that lead to planetary invasion but I cant find it as a researchable item.


Has it been reomved from the alpha?  At the moment I have a massive armada surrounding my enemies planets but no way to invade.

If you researcged it you should be able to build a troop transport ( or similar name ) from your starport 

if not it should be in the second age of the warfare tech tree 

unfortunately i dont have access to my pc so cant look it up atm

You might not have researched enough of the first age techs to unlock the second age techs, which could be why it is unavailable for research.

That could be it.  How much do you need to research to unlock the next age?

 

Also according to the GalCiv 3 Apha mini manual (https://forums.galciv3.com/452714/page/1/) everyone is locked in the first age which would mean planetary invasion may be out of reach until the beta.

Thats is out of date as of 3.0 all ages are available some techs are locked out though primarily dealing with diplomacy

From my memory, the requirement is half of each ages techs before the next age. I think this was mentioned in a dev stream. I forget which one though.
