And I thought you were doing it on purpose! I was getting diddly squat from you in "Terran Prime".
Oh see now that was an equally devious but not nearly so complicated tactic called, "Make treaties with everybody, live off the treaty income, scrap all your resource facilities and build research facilities on all your planets."

That wasn't so much an effort to keep you from enjoying the benefit of trade income as it was a way to find room to build enough research facilities. That Only own type/only own atmosphere was tough. That entire game I never found a free planet to colonize. Only ones I ever got other than my homeworlds were ones I took from the Knights and made from asteroids.
