Default Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?

Research in KOTH? For a standard 1-planet start, things are done a bit differently by the different players. For me, I use an benchmark of having my research points pretty close to my turn count by the time I get to turn 25 or 30. This is when the enemy isn't nearby. Certain aspects of each particular game my change that but as a target, when I get to turn 30, I worry if I have less than 30k research.

That's my take on research.

Some people use 3-planet starts, so, of course, what I have said doesn't hold true.
