-======Creating Blueprints======
+======Research & Creating Blueprints======
-The only way to craft equipment for yourself is by using a blueprint and suitable manufacturing equipment. The most common method is to 3D print parts for a device and then assemble it using the relevant skill. If players wish to enhance their kit with new technology uncovered at events then they will need to create the blueprint for the 3D printers first.
+Research and creating new blueprints follow broadly the same rules but with slightly different goals in mind.\\
+\\
+Research is a purely theoretical endeavour that will not result in an item that can be crafted. Instead, it expands the knowledge players have available to them and creates new options for developing item blueprints.\\
+\\
+A blueprint allows a new item to be built using a suitable crafting space.
+  Fred's cunning plan is to construct a whole new gun.
+  The idea is to superheat the bullet as it leaves the barrel to make a plasma gun.
+  He teams up with Bertha (a physicist) to make this happen.
+  Bertha carries out a research project to develop the necessary science to superheat materials into plasma.
+  Fred will then use that information to create a blueprint for a plasma gun.
