Don't do scouts and transports.
Only build COLONIZERS!
Until you can colonize no more or you're at war, but try to awoid war at all costs.
Send out the colonizers as far as they can reach with the availible supplies and then build ship yards.
Build some colonies closer to home later on with resource and research, but above all else shipyards.
On all shipyards build colonizers.
Repeat.
On single player you can play alot of games, so it doesn't matter if you loose alot, you'll win alot too.
PBW takes longer time, so you'll not win as many games.
Out of 20 players only one can win, so if everyone is equal, you'll win one out of 20 20 player games.
I've never won any!
If a single player game starts out real bad, you might quit and restart? That don't happen in PBW.
Have you had these kind of score positionsin atleast 4 single player games aswell?
I'm not in PBW to win, it's great if I do, but until I do I'll have fun anyway, I like diplomacy and empire building.
I dno't want to do war.
EDIT: One minute Alneyan....
