Conquered races - additional benefit: forced migrations and growing of planets
Havent seen this one mentioned before but am interested to know whether it is possible in the full game (waiting for my copy).
In my current game (small map), I havent founmd any planets larger than 10 facilities for me and am surrounded by five other players. I took out the Phong player on turn 33 (using transports equipped with satellites - he he he). Thought I would try and relocate his people to all my colonies which had his atmosphere (carbon dioxide)and move my people elsewhere.
All of my crappy colonies which had only 2, 3 or 4 space suddenly grew to 10,15 or 20. Six planets later, I had gained room for 80 research centres and will now be able to make a bid for no1 position (currently held by the Jraenar who were blessed by having dozens of large compatible planets).
Conquering another race has even more benefits than I thought.
Newbies, take note!!!
God I love this game! Cant wait for my full copy!!
