What do you guys like to play in? Huge galaxies? Huge fleets? Small Galaxies? Small fleets? Intelligence attacks? LIghtning attacks? Economic control? Just wanted to know your thoughts..Do you guys roleplay your personnel race? Things like that?

I prefer larger, more populated games. My favorite pick is Large, Cluster bt the AI doesnt know how to use chokepoints so more often than not im using Large, Spiral Arm. Intel is a limited fun, i think, but is still an aspect of the game and i always leave it. As for attacks, i try not to declare war on anything that is there, but when i attack i prefer simultaneous attacks from different points - and i usually go after planets, preferably those who are heavily guarded and/or have high values - losing those will surely hurt the other.
I always roleplay my race.

I'm kind of lost lately - I play AIC but can't get satisfied with game setup. It is either too many aggressive AI around me or just a few pacifist AI far away. Nothing in between

so add races yourself. i always do that.

IF I am playing against Rollo or Dogscoff then I like the strategy of the 500 ml bottle of beer...

Get a few wobblie pops in them and then sneak in a shot or two of t-kill-ya...

After that build up the defences for when they attack and wait for the morning after when their groggy and attack then



It can be countered very easily with the strategy of Next round is on EEE

I like large/huge galaxies. I'm not into rush games so i always try to build my empire into a turtle shell with only one way 1, outproducing every AI (TDM for the moment). Basically i know that when i start moving my fleets, i'll win because i can outproduce the AI bigtime. So you could say the "real" game starts for me when my production is fully set up and i go to war.
In my current game i'm building some 7 ish sphereworlds at the same time, having completed 1 sphereworld and 8 ringworlds.
