My race had overtaken in resources by PPS at 2420, although was behind in research. This was exactly what I was expecting from spreadsheeting.

I did not have the Iron problems my opponent had, because I had 40% more from the efficiency. I handled all my early - mid expansion using the HW minerals alone.

My colonies developed extremely quickly because of the large quantities of G I was able to export from the HW (again, 14 eff.)

I also found slightly more planets, but this was also expected due to wider habs. In fact I only ever found about 1 in 9 greens despite 1 in 7 habs Sad

IT
NRSE, CE, OBRM, NAS, ISB
Grav: 0.24g to 1.80g
Temp: Immune
Rad: 16mR to 40mR
PGR 17%, 1 in 7
Eff 1 in 2500
15/7/21 4g facs
14/3/15 mines
Weap cheap, rest expensive, no start at 3.
1 leftover point to concentrations

If I played the race again I'd probably try to make con at least normal. I think I'd keep ISB - I didn't build many gates(!) this game so the 20% saving isn't so importnat, however it's real value is in providing a cheap effective defense platform for the early years so you aren't such an easy target for HG races.

I think this race might even do OK in a duel with a HG race, but I don't think I want to test that theory right now Wink
