'''Battle Research''' is one of the three main research trees in Whiteout Survival, focused on improving your military capabilities. It is conducted at the [[Research Center]] and provides permanent bonuses to troop attack, defense, HP, and combat skills.

== Overview ==

Battle Research is the most important research tree for competitive players. Every technology you unlock permanently improves your troops' effectiveness in all combat situations — attacks, defenses, SvS, and events.

== Tier 1 Technologies ==

The first tier of Battle Research unlocks fundamental military upgrades:

== Higher Tiers ==

Each technology has multiple levels (I, II, III, etc.) that can be researched sequentially:
* Each higher level provides a stronger version of the same bonus
* Higher tier technologies require completing previous tiers and higher [[Research Center]] levels
* Tiers 2–6 and beyond provide progressively larger bonuses

== Advanced Military Research ==

Beyond the standard Battle tree, advanced military research unlocks higher-tier troops:

* '''T11 Infantry''' — Unlocks and improves Tier 11 Infantry
* '''T11 Marksman''' — Unlocks and improves Tier 11 Marksmen
* '''T11 Lancer''' — Unlocks and improves Tier 11 Lancers
* '''T12 Marksman''' — Unlocks and improves Tier 12 Marksmen
* '''T12 Infantry''' — Unlocks and improves Tier 12 Infantry
* '''T12 Lancer''' — Unlocks and improves Tier 12 Lancers

These advanced trees are accessible at higher [[Furnace]] levels and require completing earlier research prerequisites.

== Priority Guide ==

=== Early Game ===
Focus on technologies that boost your most-used troop types:
* Pick your main troop type (Infantry/Lancer/Marksman) and research their core ATK, DEF, HP techs first
* Research Regimental Expansion for larger marches

=== Mid Game ===
* Complete all Tier 1 technologies
* Begin Tier 2 upgrades for your primary troop type
* Start working toward Tier 3 for the troop type you use most

=== Late Game ===
* Complete all tiers of all technologies
* Begin T11 troop research
* Work toward T12 and FC troop research trees

== Tips ==

* Assign [[Cloris]] as your research hero to speed up all Battle Research
* Use Speed-Up items on the longest research projects
* Prioritize the troop type that matches your playstyle (offensive = Lancer, defensive = Infantry, mixed = Marksman)
* Don't neglect defensive research even if you're an offensive player — good DEF reduces troop losses
