I've run various tests and I'm still not convinced that non-IFE is better.

Probably beacause you play IT as HP? HP IT is strange beast. Quite playable so I have seen them lot around. On the other hand i have very rarely seen them winning games.

Yes you can build more ships as boosters, but that's taking away from your research into Energy - which of course is the AR factory equivalent.

With AR i have ironium problem instead... so i usually research large freighters by turn 11 or so. Can build one large freighter for cost of 2 privateers and have double fuel as well. Wink

IS admittedly has a very handy fuel transport available early (have to research cons4), but the hull itself costs 5 germ and then you have to add the germ cost of whatever engine you use.

IS can also afford to arrive a year later. It grows on the road better than at the average colony planet. Wink

Note that you are talking about these 3 germaniums like these are saving some major $$$. Dont you see that this IFE costs like 1 resource more from 10 factories? Say your 10 factories give 12 resources and you got IFE, other guys 10 factories give 13 resources he got no IFE. Now you can build 21 factories since you got 3 more germ, and have 25.2 resources, he can build only 20 factories and have 26 resources. Who componds better? Razz

And do not forget he got 8% more econ per planet once done.
