I'm fairly new to this game, but I really like it.I've only won one, and it was flukey.
I'm interested in all your general strategies:
Which races are overpowered/underpowered?
Are any races 'supereffective' against any other race in any particular ways?
Tech tree: should I be upgrading weapons and hulls, or computers and shields? statistically which way gives me the best probability of winning a battle?
Research: jack of all trades, or should I specifically try to fill out one particular research type?
...or are their a few particularly valuable research items that I should invest in generally?
When exploring: What should I be looking to keep, and what to discard?
I assume squares with aliens on them should be kept.
General fleet strategy: swarm interceptors, or go big&heavy with dreadnoughts?
The endgame: what really makes the difference in victory points? Are monoliths worth pursuing, or too costly?
specific race strategies - as 'planta' should I mainly be avoiding combat and just exploring and colonizing?
which races are most aggressive?
why and how?
How to play the race that cant fight ancients? full aggressive against the enemy, or something else?
Thanks guys. The more detail the better.
