Possible Sensor Power issue with Terran Energy Field Focus 1

Posted on Thursday, April 21, 2016

I was taking a look at the terran tech tree to compare the changes with a custom tech tree I have and came across this :-

Is that Flat Value intentional? (awfully low compared to the rest of the Sensor Power components/techs) Or, should it be a multiplier like the starbase?
