Greetings all,

HE aren't as weak as one may think. Keep in mind that although you don't get Stargates, you simply must rely on sheer numbers. In order to do this you must design a HE that is agressive and is able to get out of the gate early with cheap tech and good factories. With the fact you are live on every planet you can sacrifice points off of mines and GR considering you get your GR doubled.

Though, like other PRT, HE can be very deadly in the right hands. Consider a Nubian with Flux Capacitators and range 3 beams, is light weight, and although not gatable, is cheap enough to have it in Large numbers around EVERY planet. Pretty scary if you ask me.

Also what of the advantage of the Mini Morph Hull. With enough slots to pump the Initiative well over that of a Cruiser, and with enough slots to compensate for the weapons, AND have cargo capacity, can be used for an efficient early gunboat.

Besides if you are going for numbers, a HE with HP style economy can really reck havoc if left alone for to long, and the 3% tri imune monster, in the right hands, can REALLY be powerfull. Sure it is weak compared to the other races, but it's advantages are it's ability to have large numbers and superior tech through constant expansion. If you plan on just sitting around and being diplomatic then you should try a JoAT HP, but if agression is your game and lots and lots of planets is your fedish, HE is probably going to work well for you.

All in all, for a beginner or newby, HE is probably weak. Though just like any other PRT, in the right hands, the HE PRT can be very effective and deadly.

Just my 2c,
Stalwart
