Hi stardock. My friend gave me this game to play while he is on holiday for 3 weeks, so I've been able to play it for free. I am very impressed, but at the same time, I didn't particularly enjoy the game. I am not sure if I will continue to keep playing or not, but should I not play again, I will give some feedback and explain why that may be.

Thanks both of you :) I think I have the very start going well now. Thanks. All I need to know now, is what I should do after I have my first planet and asteroid. Is it worth trying to focus on research to build up my economy and afford a big strong army later? Or is it better to go easy on the research, and spend most of my money on just building up the army right away? The thing that catches me out, is the orbital refinery and trade. It's hard to know which is best, because w
Hi all, I know this is asked by every newb who joins :p but I hoped to get some custom advice if possible please. I have done the tutorial, and then I have just played the random small 1vs1 game, against an easy opponent. I like to play as TEC, but I will try the others once I get used to the game.
