A bit OT, so a different post.

I would STRONGLY suggest that you download the stars help file for ready reference http://starsautohost.org/files/e27ihelp.exe
Also go through this: Stars Strategy Guide http://stars.arglos.net/articles/ssg/ssg.htm
You HAVE to read this guide, if nothing else. Read it like a novel Very Happy

.
If you still have the passion and perhaps the stamina... then go through the vault on the wiki
These were my starting steps into Stars! ... that kept me playing more than 10 years against the AI, before I finally found SAH Very Happy

.

A note on planet usage:
You can classify planets on basis of habitability and generally 80%+ planets are known as breeders, where you keep your pop cap at 25% to 33% (to 42% or 48% depending on your own illogical preference Razz

) but not more than that, as the growth rate drops drastically.
Players generally make 50%-80% planets as production planets with 100% cap and factories, while 20%-50% planets are research planets / subsidiary fleet builders (like chaff, support ships etc). 0%-20% planets are research planets + strategic gate planets.

I know my minefields.. but I'm a chaff sweeper.
I used to curse when I got stuck in traffic... till I realised I AM traffic.
