AR - Basically 3 different styles of play, and only one of them I've ever seen or read as effective. Extremely vulnerable, and a bit outside the scope of this.

Not sure what the three styles of play are. There's normal, there's the half-baked tri-immune, what else?

The thing about AR is that they're factoryless (and thus punch above their total resources) and that there's very little they have that cannot be moved (the mineral fountain is basically it). They aren't top-tier, though, unless it's a multi-winner game.


I think for AR the main decisions are # immunes (1 is very good, 0 or 2 are questionable, 3 is probably unplayable in any real setting) and pop efficiency (2500 gives 600 RW points for sqrt(2.5) reduction, allowing you to buy e.g. good hab, growth, TT, and normal/cheap bio) but it does make them quite sluggish and reduces planet resources from a respectable 2800 down to 1750.
