Re: Incredible newbie? How to make troops?
Folks,
Does he need to study "Troop Weapons"? first?
Will troops fight without them?

Re: Incredible newbie? How to make troops?
Yeah, 'smaller weapons' I think... only costs like 5000 - 10000 for the first level, something I am usually able to take care of on the initial turn with the bonuses... That is, assuming my strategy that time around relies on troops (troops rock!).

Re: Incredible newbie? How to make troops?
You can design troops with either troop weapons (ground cannon) or smaller weapons, but yes you need one of these researched to at least level one.

No. You just get the planet and the population and any facilities that are still on the planet (ie: they didn't get blown up during the invasion). The population can be important, however, because you should now have a race with a different breathing atmosphere and you can move them to a planet with this atmosphere (as long as they are the only race on that planet) to increase the amount of facilities.
