Default Re: Beginners Guide, HELP!!! (Please Read And Post)

solops alot of the tech tree can only be learned by reading the text files for facilities, components, etc... And then you still have to piece together what is going on in the background of the game..... The learning curve is quite steep but well worth the effort... I am still figuring out stuff and I have been playing this game for a year now.

Just using ship construction as an example ??? the variations and combinations is endless.

But for strategies.... computers and cargo are very important for long games....

And the value improvement tree is very important.

If you planning on playing a game that is over 300 turns I suggest that by turn 60 or 70 you have atmosphere converters...storage/cargo maxed out and system wide computers .... The game is a game of economics.....

This of course will drive the monoliths III's and resource converter III as well.
