Never happend to me that mins were not particular tight, before con7 miners and i prefer to skip those and start with con12 miners, saves lots of resources.
|
I've yet to play AR against humans, but I've been testbedding recently. In my testbeds I always run into a mineral shortage early, particularly Ir as I build PVTs. How do you manage to skip straight to the Con12/Elec6 RSM? I have been forced in all my testbeds to build several, ~10-12, Con4/Elec2 RM miners. What might I be doing wrong?
|
I simply do that by ignoring HW hitting 25%(or 33%) and build no MFs or Privs at all and no terraform. I go directly to con8 and then only take colonist every other turn. When i get con8 i have to build 2-3 LFs to get pop back to 25-30% and afterwards i need at most a new one every 2 years. Though i play 15-16% growth and 1/1000 efficiency, with 19% and 1/2500 efficiency i would do different, it would take forever to get con8. That way i'm sacrificing growth for more con tech and save minerals. That way i hope to get to con12 fast enough. But take care i only ran testbeds so far(got con 8 in 2407-10, got con12 in 2424-25 and con12 miners build in 2428 with no we research till then), i'm in first game in twenties now and already behind plan, i had to do some we research, because of uncertain neighbour and terraform requirements. Don't know if this works.
But i think you should nearly always try to skip con4 miners, they are rather expensive and with con cheap(nearly must have for AR) con 7 miners are not far away.
