Hi!

distribution of population from your HW
|
1) any breeder (75% or better green planet) found -> 50k pop (one year of pop growth on your HW). If none, go to add 2.
2) other close green and big yellow planets -> 25k or 50k pop, depending on the minerals ot the spee of terraforming them to breeders. If no (more) such planets, let pop on HW grow to 45%-50% capacity while building infrastructure.
3) Depending on the number of available green / yellow planets:
3a) close breeders fill up to 100k pop, then leave them grow.
3b) far greens (3+ W9 jumps)-> 50k pop.
3c) close small greens and big and medium yellows -> 50k-100k pop.
4) Competition (other players) arrives: 
4a) They want about the same planets as you:  all potentially habitable planets in that theatre setled with 25k/50k pop, thereafter planets closer to your core planets. If not enough pop on HW, then get them from (big) green planets in that theatre.
4b) Their hab is different:  negotiate border, try to trade for green planets, settle good yellow planets with 50k pop first, small yellows next. At this phase your first breeders should provide that pop.
5) When most green and big yellow planets are settled with 50k pop, let your pop on your HW grow to 45%-50% to get more resources and minerals  . Hold breeders at 25% until they build all infrastructure, then let them also grow to 45%-50%.
6) Depending on the amount of breeders:
6a) decent amount  : backfill HW to 100%, backfill high-MC breeders to 100%, let poor breeders grow pop indefinitely for filling other small planets or invasion freighters. Colonize everything in your space to get some more resources and minerals.
6b) sparse amount  : keep filling small planets to 100%, then keep lifting pop for invasion, backfill only the HW.
HTH and BR, Iztok
