About Military Incremental Complex
Military Incremental Complex lets you build a weapons‑manufacturing empire from a humble hand‑crafted bullet shop to a global industrial powerhouse. You progress by automating production, researching new armaments, and expanding your supply chain across the world.
The game blends simulation and strategy, offering stock‑market investing, government lobbying, and prestige abilities that reshape each playthrough. With dozens of upgrades, research paths, and prestige options, the goal is to turn the entire economy into a profit‑driven war machine.
01 / THE GUIDE
Hand‑Crafted Production
Each weapon starts with a unique manual crafting process, requiring specific raw materials and player input. This early stage emphasizes resource gathering and basic manufacturing.
As you master these methods, you can unlock automation that speeds up production, allowing you to focus on expansion rather than individual item creation.
- Track which weapons need the fewest materials to maximize early profit.
- Compare the time required for manual versus automated production before upgrading.
02 / THE GUIDE
Global Supply Chain
You can establish mining operations worldwide to extract raw resources, then purchase factories to refine them into usable materials. Owning the full chain reduces reliance on external suppliers.
Controlling extraction, refinement, and manufacturing lets you balance costs and output, influencing overall profitability and production speed.
- Map out resource locations to minimize transport delays.
- Evaluate the cost of buying a factory versus the long‑term savings from in‑house refining.

03 / THE GUIDE
Research & Upgrades
The game offers over 120 research upgrades that improve production efficiency, unlock new weapons, and enhance UI features. Research can also increase pricing power and other economic factors.
Upgrades are tiered, allowing you to specialize in certain weapon lines or adopt a broader strategy across multiple armaments.
- Prioritize upgrades that reduce material consumption for high‑volume items.
- Balance research spending between new weapons and efficiency improvements.
04 / THE GUIDE
Capital Gains via Stock Market
Invest in nine public companies to earn passive dividends and unlock bonuses when you hold threshold amounts. The market provides an additional revenue stream beyond manufacturing.
Strategic investment can fund further expansion, allowing you to diversify income sources and mitigate production downturns.
- Monitor dividend payouts to identify the most lucrative companies.
- Diversify holdings to protect against market fluctuations.
05 / THE GUIDE
Political Lobbying
Six lobbying paths let you spend favors to reduce regulations, secure better contracts, and increase demand for your weapons. Political influence directly impacts production constraints and profit margins.
Effective lobbying can accelerate growth by removing legal bottlenecks and opening new market opportunities.
- Compare the cost of favors against the expected increase in demand.
- Target lobbying paths that align with your current production focus.
