The calculation includes the following categories:
- buildings;
- technologies;
- active land units;
- operational ships;
- components;
- specialized devices;
- defenses.
Buildings and technologies use their cumulative cost up to the level reached.
Long-term investments count, except for damaged ships and seriously wounded units that are temporarily unavailable. These units do not count while returning, waiting, or receiving treatment and repairs. After reactivation, each unit regains its normal point value; the cost paid to recover it does not generate any additional points.
