Btw, I like that colony ship idea, I didnt even think of that.  What a great way to expand the alliance!

Computer research gives you a slot for ships for every level you do.For those getting started I suggest you get your Solar up as soon as possable otherwise under resources your going to have to play with the %'s to keep priduction going good.Solar should be higher than metal or Crystals by at least 1 level.You wont be waiting as much to refill everything that way.

Yeah, but didnt it say that one ship can set up 8 colonies on the new planet?  I'm assuming that means the mines and such.

and extremely profitable once you've got one or two - double your production easily, another set of fleets to raid with, etc. Colonizing is still my primary goal for the time being. Raiding is going to pay for it :D.

Computer research gives you slots for FLEETS, not just ships.  You can put as many ships into a fleet as you like, thats fine.  I also found out, that Solar Sattelites do not count against Fleet positions.

Each colony is a new planet Star. And your allowed to have 8 colonies and your home planet.

And thats why Im doing it detch. This will double my resources and then my next goal is battleships and cruisers.

I figured that out a few minutes ago Bodhi, wording of computer research is not the greatest.

Brazoria is running at a minimum level now.  I'm going to let it sit and make resources for Trill to draw off of.  Trill will be ready to go into heavy R&D mode tonight.  I'd like to add another level of Deuterium mines and another level of solar power to the grid, but its time to start making ships.  I've put it off long enough.  That guy in the fighter is getting lonely up there doing patrols by himself.  Besides, I want heavy fighters and bombers.  Muwahahaha!

Who had the forum space available?  Links anyone?  We not only need a forum, we need it separated between 2 and 7 so we can keep everyone straight.
