Ah, but the thing with practically ANY question in stars! is this, It's all theoretical till it grinds it out in a real game Wink

It's true that, theoretically, it's be better to take more greens (However possible) but the most important is to maximise resourse/mins with minimum effort. A war is a rather big effort. Not so much for an IS in relation to an AR but still... By doing just 3 or so turns' worth of MM (Most likely boring turns coz you're not at war Wink

) you can permanently, barring any packets/warfleets, increase your total mining and resource output.

To do this, overpoping Reds is rather easy. You'll need a calculator and a formula to calculate how many people a red can hold for your race, how fast they die, how much pop an overpoped red takes, how fast they die when overpoped, and lastly, how many pop you'll need in transport above the world too replace the killed pop on the planet automatically.

Luckely, you only have to calculate this once. You'll just have to add the max pop and primary growth rate to a fromula.

And viola, you have a few extra resources and mins from seemingly useless Reds Smile

*now for someone to do the hard work, actually making the freaken formula*

ok, made A formulae all on me own Smile

Here's the death toll on an overpoped red red

((MaxHWPop*0.05)*3)/((Red%/10)+8%)

That'd mean, for a OBRM IS Race, overpopping a -25% Red:

((1 100 000 * 0.05) * 3) / ((25/10)+8)
= 165 000/10.5
= 15 700 Deaths

This means you need 165 000 - 15 700 = 149 300 pop on surface and overflow of about 15 700.

Ok, now for someone who actually passed maths to come and show me my gaping flaws in my simple equasion Smile
