Re: The Eco Challenge
something I tried reminded me of this old thread. gameplay goes alot faster if you play by checkers rules, where you have to take your jumps. people complain that the AI does not expand fast enough, but people usually ( at least I dont) dont expand as fast as they can either.
make researching colony tech priority 1, and never have uncolonized planets. if there is a planet without a colony on it, divert all resources to colonizing it. enemy held world? take it. dont 'waste' time on infrastructure building or reinforcing your front line. unchecked expansion makes it very hard to defend against things, and i assure you you will spend alot of time retaking colonies that just get blown away. play with max AI, no neutrals.
