Greetings all,

Just thought I would put in my couple of cents about the HE Strategy. Keep in mind that the HE has the ability to colonize EVERYTHING. This means trading for planets a LOT easier. If you are having trouble getting stargates... get an ally who has some and ask for them to colonize a couple of planets in your system in exchange for planets in his, minerals, and your forces. That in it's own right is a VERY extensive tool, and if that isn't enough, HE can have a very nice tech advantage after they start ramping everything up... and even then they can still provide the overcloaked Mine Layers and the Flux Cap Nubian/smaller ships.

Just because you can live everywhere doesn't mean you HAVE to, it just leaves you more room to play with. And considering a HE can have high value greens on EVERY planet right at year 1, and if you have a bi-immune you only have to worry about 1500 (Maximum +/- 15% Terraforming at 100 resources per click) maximum amount of resource for terraforming per planet, as compared to 4500 for all other races (3000 compared to 1-immunes). That is a LOT compared to the fact other races have to constantly manage that, and puts HE up there with that of a CA, but even a CA can't get 100% planets on almost all of his planets... (though they can get pretty cloes Razz)

Again this all goes into the fact that one must understand his people in order to run a fluid empire. Very Happy

Hope this helps,
Stalwart
