Re: If you could give one bit of advice to someone
Read the FAQ (Oh, wait that was not allowed)
Advice for an actual newbie? More philosophy than actual tactics.
Be willing to lose the first few times.
Some of the best games in the world (chess, go) you will lose the first few 50-100 times while you get the "hang of it". Don’t let that discourage you from discovering a game that will hold your interest for years. Try out different strategies. If something doesn’t work, try, try, try again. With the various options of the combat simulator, starting with different tech levels and even playing against only yourself, you can test what works and maybe find new ways of conquering the galaxy.

Re: If you could give one bit of advice to someone
It's...It's...It's like a beutifull idea whose like the galaxy has never seen before!
/me starts building a giant cheese-ship.
/me takes a sample, just to be sure the cheese is of good quality.
/me takes another, just to make sure it's got the right structure.
/me takes another, for quality testing purposes.
/me...

Re: If you could give one bit of advice to someone
You know Narf, your cheese ships have two main weaknesses...
1) You
2) Any sort of energy beam weapon that would roast your ships
Aside from taht your cheese ships should theoretially be invincible.

Re: If you could give one bit of advice to someone
Hey, in narf's defense, the stinky Limburger ray is a very nasty weapon! It is hard to concentrate on the target on the other side of your scopes when you're gagging and turning green. I do agree that maybe narf would be his own biggest down fall. All that cheese and an empire of mice. I don't think it would be a very good combination.
Okay, I better get back to our posts subject - newbie advice...... hmmmm, oh yeah - I'm a newbie! I already shared my advice from the newbie perspective. Oh well, someday I may have wisdom to partake to others. Sigh.
