( look for the Dubious Strategy Guide and SEIV Strategy & Taticts )
I would recommend that you stick with Peaceful races as you will not have to deal so much with rioting.
And that when you start your games you build some Mineral , Organic , Rad Storage on your newly colonized planets so you can store that extra production at the beginning of the game.
Then when your starting to build more and more ships make sure you can afford to keep them by balancing your production. And colonize every planet you can. 1 mineral planet on a planet at 103 % is still going to give you 700 + minerals a turn. As you only need one space port per system. This will really help your empire. Also at the beginning of the game it is more important to build colony ships and get them out there.
For ministers... I turn them off.
For Screen prints... No the print scrn copy and paste is the only way to go.
Good luck...
And post away... Your answers will be given
