Connections

     The skill to make Connections effects your ability to make deals for units in exchange for blue crystals and to get K-drones off the blackmarket. Though this skill does not have a direct effect on battles or development, it should not be overlooked. If you have no Connections then you cannot access the blackmarket to get K-drones and will need to rely entirely on your military skills.

     Connections not only give you access to the blackmarket, they also effect how well you can work the market. There are three price catagories for K-Drones in the blackmarket - low, medium and high. Which bracket you will fall in depends on how many K-drones you have and how good your connections are. Every skill point of Connections that you have will increase the number of K-drones you can have and still obtain low and medium proces. More precisely, each Connection skill point increases the number of K-drones you can have and get low prices by 100, and increases the number of K-drones you can have and still get medium prices by 50.
