Hey you've got numbers! I LOVE numbers! Surprised

So here is a design I came up with:
Midget Miner with Ultrals:
Cost:
Iron 19 kt
Germ 6 kt
Res 62
Other:
Mass 174kt Gatable Cool

Armor 100dp
Range 284ly(to 398 of alien)
Minig rate 50mines eqv

So you pay 71% more Iron
66.7% more Germ
9% more Res
with alien miner.
Now this difference doesn't seem like much and there is no doubt that alien mini-Miner is a bit more versatile but what can you do with this 9% res difference? You can slap a galaxy scoop or some other high tech engine for that difference! Now we have a miner that could gate through anywhere AND go at Warp 10 to its destination (withing 100ly there are on average 3 planets)! If the alien miner does the same the cost/eff difference increases. It is best to use alien miners on big miner hulls. An ultra miner with aliens is AWSOME!!! Very Happy

But then again, OBRM's don't get accsess to them. Laughing

As I have said before alien and ultra mining robots are pretty close at MAX TECH. But when does that happen? When there are very few if any good min con planets around! So what use do I have of all these miners when they pay off in 65- yrs?
I need those good miners in mid game at tech 15 or something and at this stage ultra miners are much better. But there is an added element of gatability versatility etc... The main thing is that OBRM races incur heavy penalties at this stage compared to ARM and non-OBRM races even if they have alien miners. They pay twice the minerals and res. And they still pay twice the minerals at the end of the game when minerals are precious.
And alien tech has the nasty tendency to pass onto other players. Twisted Evil

In the Future there is only WAR...
Therefore our extinction is assured, it is just a matter of where and when.
