These are just a few tips for beginners. The main tip is
NEVER ASSUME THAT OTHER PLAYERS ARE DOING WHAT YOU ARE! There are many different ways to rule the galaxy. Here are few tips...
- Expand quickly. Only a certain number of planets can be discovered, so it is important to claim as many as possible as quickly as possible. Dominic had way more planets then the other players at the end of the beta because he built two more observatories. But watch out for power hungry nations who want to grab your planets.
- Defend yourself. I would suggest at first to build up a large fleet to defend against blockades and build a smaller army on each planet to prevent invasion. I did the opposite during the beta and ended up being blockaded a couple of large fleets which rendered my huge army worthless.
- Govern wisely. Take advantage of the utopia or bureaucracy governments early in the game to help economic growth. Utopia's bonus of allowing planets to produce while constructing improvements will allow you to build up your planets without sacrificing production. Bureaucracy allows two expansion operations per turn at the same building, allowing you to expand rapidly.
- Make friends. Giving a few resources or breaking a blockade to aid struggling player may seem to be a waste of resources but those players will be much more likely to came to your aid if you find yourself in a similar situation. Having a reputation for being honest and gracious will make players much more likely to take your side in a conflict.
Hope this helps!
