Finally bought the game and I'm reading like mad to prepare for my first MP game (where I am Pangaea) but I'm running into lots of vernacular here, like "SC" and "rainbow mage", etc.

Rainbow Mage I've figured out but what the heck does SC stand for, when in reference of a pretender build?

I'm also looking for advice for a *basic* Pangaea strategy. Nothing too fancy, just something to get a good foothold early on before I get squashed.

Thx!

if you are still interested in a pangenea guide you could read my pangenea cw guide .
because djtool requested i added my own current vq build for pan cw in my Last post there too .
if you have some time because it has gotten rather large you can read all .

pan cw is ihmo a good starting race because you can try out a sc ( the vq ) , don't need to care about population and it is very straightforward .
so far i can think of no more straightforward race . even ulm is ihmo more complicated .
if you have any questions left then you can post them in my pan cw guide of course and i will do my best to answer .
