Preview image of Tech Share game mode, which was named as MixTech during developing.
Tech Share is a game mode that allows one to play a faction with all of the subfaction's technology (e.g. if playing as the Allies, all USA, European Alliance and Pacific Front technology are available).
Tech Share mode shares maps with standard mode.
Changes[]

Pandora Hub's price decreased from $1800 to $1400, its plugins' price decreased from $3000 to $1000. Plugins' power cost decreased from 200 to 150.- Foehn tier 3 access expansions' price decreased from $1500 to $1000. Power cost decreased from 150 to 100.
- Tech Secret Labs replaced with Tech Nuclear Plants.
- AI may attack with combined forces from all three subfactions. Epsilon AI will build three Pandora Hubs to fully expand the tech tree.
Strategy[]
Since this mode allows players to use all tech of their factions, players will face the issue of whether to go offensive at T2 or T3, and which subfaction's tech to develop first.
| Faction |
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|---|
| T2/one | $3800 | $4100 | $4000 | $4700 |
| T2/all | $5800 | $4100 | $4000 | $7700 |
| T3/one | $8300 | $7600 | $6200 | $8700 |
| T3/all | $10300 | $12600 | $11000 | $10700 |
Generally speaking, the Soviet Union and Epsilon Army pay the most for developing all-tech. For Soviets, building up three tier 3 access buildings will cost $7500 in total and has 3 turn of constructions, while the Epsilon will cost $7200 and has even 6 turns of constructions! The Allies will cost $6000 and has 4 turns while the Foehn costs $3000 on all expansions constructing in 3 turns.
