Too much good info in this thread. It's going to get harder in those PBW games.

6. Rename your planets to indicate where Fleet and Ship Training facilities are for easy identification. Consider using a code as renames are visible to opponents.


On the subject of too much information. Renaming your planets might not be such a good idea. It may help you keep organized better, but it also gives your opponent a lot more info than you want them having.

And it doesn't even have to be a race you've already met, if they are an ancient race, they can see your planet names when you change them from across the quadrant. Even if you use some code for the names that won't tell them what's on them, it could give them an idea of how fast you are expanding and in what directions. All stuff that is better to keep to yourself.
