Default Re: How the **** do yu keep up in tech

Also, try and develop a plan of research. I'm guessing you're still learning what the techs mean, but soon you should have an idea and stick with it.

A rule of thumb is not to let your tech for hull size fall more than 1 behind your enemy. Now that's just a rule of thumb, you could beat them with even smaller hulls...

But anyway, you see your problem. You got battleship hulls just when the AI had fleets of battleships. If you have a large fleet of battle cruisers with superior weaponry, you'd have more success.

And you'd have a better research plan than just keeping up with the Jones's
