That way, when the “Starfleet” guild decides to use one of your bases for a “routine training operation,” you can then destroy that ensign’s fleet and have Starfleet command all up your inbox while you raid bases with ships they didn’t expect you to have because they were convinced you didn’t have the money to make them. Then spend all your remaining money on fleet building. Max out the surface area so each base can do as much production and research as possible first, if there’s remaining area, trade routes (and those are linked to far away “friendlies.”) Set your queues to research defensive tech first because it’s the most expensive and takes the longest time. Rather than waste time with trying to make this type of planet with that type of base or even try to get the tenth planet free, all one had to do was find one metal planet, one metal moon, and seven far flung asteroids with the right numbers and perform the following procedure: In warfare, this is expressed as a base that quickly produces a lethal amount and type of ship but itself is of such low value that attacking it is a net negative because of the cost incurred of going through the base’s defenses.Įvery successful attack (resulting in the ratio 2:1) from those bases is a net positive in terms of generated debris, raid value, and that diabetes and cavity inducing icing on the cake, seized income percentage. Profitability follows efficient base design, efficient base design returns the most amount of yield from available resources used per square unit of area. If one made the effort to understand it (he stated English wasn’t his first language but it wasn’t that difficult to understand), one was shown the “secret science” of the game: base efficiency. There was an incredibly illuminating player’s guide written by a Hungarian math nerd by the name of Zoltan that’s sadly no longer available. Cortazar” in league with the guild known as SPuD (Scottish Penguins United For Death) on the Alpha server of Astro Empires years ago. To establish bona fides, I was indeed involved in that intractably nasty business known as interstellar warfare, as “J.F.
