Default Re: New to the game and Overwhelmed. Any hints?

If it has an orbit colonize it. Mines and Fighters are invaluable early on. Move population from home worlds to good colonies quick. Expand your population as quickly as possible. Never stop building colony ships. Putting mines on warp points and continuing to do so will give you the breathing space to build your Empire. Space yards on most planets. (will increase production on that planet even if idle)Industry+computers/robotic factories III = lots of production.
