[quote who="kyogre12" reply="2" id="1974752"] 3. Ok, this is actually a valid complaint. Impulse should be Linux compatible, but I have to ask, how many people actually have Linux?

Reply to So what's the typical approach to dealing with crappy advent economies? in Strategy Sins Forums

TEC focusses on credits, Vasari on recources Advent are somewhere between, however, u can get around 90% of TEC credit income and 90% of vasari recource income, if u play smart first of all, Progenitor coloinze ability reduces infrastructure upgrade, this is the best colonize ability in the game secondly: advent have a tier 3 tradeport, means they can get credits pretty easily iit's also combined with a refinery.. if u bother upgrading it

for the moment illuminators are still to powerfull, tough the nerf helped alot, i wouldnt worry about illuminators by the way, as soon as carriers are fixed we can go back to figuring out why illuminators are so darn strong (sidebeams should be counted towards primairy damage not secondary... theyre used around 99% in battle!!)

[quote who="SiAlON" reply="11" id="1959879"]I think this is an inherent problem with playing online...you never really know the people you are playing with and what styles they like.

It is completely up to the player whether or not he wants to quit the game, some people like trying to fight an uphill battle. So if this is
