Chigara can upgrade various aspects of friendly units if sufficient funds are allocating to research. The cost of subsequent upgrades rise quickly but the player has a lot of flexibility as to what aspects of what units to improve. Perhaps one would rather cover weakness and focus on defense and HP, or perhaps another discovers powerful combinations of upgrades that synergize very well in battle.
Upgrades
Hull Plating
Increases maximum HP of a ship
Energy Reactor
Increases maximum EN of a ship
Evasion
Decreases the chance this unit gets hit by enemy attacks
Weapons
Kinetic, Energy, Melee and Missile weapons are upgrades separately from each other, but the effects are similar.
Damage
Each upgrades raises the base damage of affected weapons by 5% (10% for missiles). This increase is multiplicative with any buffs on the same ship, enhancing the effect of both.
accuracy
Each upgrade increases the base accuracy of affected weapons by 5%. This is not an added bonus to chance-to-hit like an accuracy buff is, and is therefore more effective the higher the base accuracy of a weapon is.
Missiles already have very high accuracy, so instead they have an upgrade that decreases the enemy's effective flak rating.
energy cost
Each upgrade reduces the EN cost of affected weapons by 5% (10% for missiles). Combined with extra EN upgrades this can give a unit the ability to fire her weapons multiple times during a single phase.
Shield Power
If the unit is capable of producing an energy field this upgrade can increase the strength of the generated field by 5 points. Every unit affected by the field gains the extra effect provided by the upgrade
Shield Range
A very expensive and very powerful upgrade that increases the range of the unit's shields by 1.
Flak
Increases the chance of intercepting an enemy missile or rocket by an additional 5% per upgrade
Armor
Decreases the damage received per hit by 5 per upgrade. This extra armor gets reduced in effectiveness relative to the unit's HP level just like the default armor is.
Repair Crew
it's a secret to everybody.
