Re: New player struggling
Andy,
As a newbie myself, it helps if you have some recollection of MOO2. The game is similar in many ways albeit more complex.
Trial and error is sometimes the way to go. Playing the Klingons, one of my colonies rebelled (in the home system yet). How to go about bringing it back in line? I had researched "troops" earlier but had no clue how to use them. WTH, just give it a go, put 'em on a transport and include in a fleet of LC's, DDs, and a Light Carrier. Soften up the planet and send in the troops. I had barely enough but armed with Meson BLasters 3 (early in game) they squeaked out a victory. I also gleened that approx 1 militia point is generated planetside for every 20 MM pop.
Don't get frustrated. Part of the fun is watching the game unfold as you learn.
