Default Re: Just bought the game: Question about tech tree

Silent sorrow, the game is awesome great!
In the beginning:
Buy ship construction, then you can stick more death and destruction on a ship.
Then get BIGGER guns, DUC 2 is a start.
Then, MORE GUNS, or bigger ships, varied with propulsion. Get Mil Tech to get Point defense stuff. Physics to get shields , sensors. Construction to get mines , fighters.

You need to dance in R&D a little depending on your opponents stuff. Bigger hulls, Bigger guns, Bigger missiles all help in the beginning. Don't get too far behind in any of these areas. Do not ignore speed.(engine tech)
Almost everything is needed, but all in its own time. Out-number them, Out-gun them, Out-produce them.

Concentrate your forces. Even a single escort can sometimes be the margin of victory.
