Our 10 Commandments

1) Read the WIKI, really guys, its fracken awesome! Even though I'm ranked 13K (at present) I still read stuff on there most days!

2) Battlecalc... need I say more ? www.battlecalc.com - Just don't forget that they can always move ships to defend... so if in doubt send more ships ;p

3) Know your enemy! This means lvl up your Espionage Tech AND send multiple probes! Sending 5+ probes will usually give a complete readout on an enemy.

4) FLEETSAVE! Ok this is pretty basic... when you aren't using your fleet, send it somewhere. The best method is a Harvest mission (Harvest missions CANNOT be intercepted and are undetectable!) but other methods are as a transport to another planet or simply attacking inactives at a slow speed. The whole idea is that your fleet is away from your planet while you are away from your computer/asleep. N/B I love destroying enemy fleets, and recycling them... you even get points for ships destroyed ;P)

5) RESOURCESAVE! As above but you get all your transport ships (always try and have enough to carry ALL your resources at one time) and send them off on a mission with the cargo FULL of your resources... that way A) an enemy probe will make the attacker move onto richer planets when looking for ripe targets B) An enemy attack will result in little or no spoils... making the attack rather pointless. An alternative is to start (Then cancel when you get back) A) Researching a tech B) Building a building. N/B SHIPS/DEFENCE CANNOT BE CANCELED SO QUEUEING THEM IS PERMANENT.

6) Tech Up Responsibly! Feel free to as for advice when lvling up your tech, everyone has their own path to greatness... and we all get the Prometheus in the end ;) Important Tech to remember are AI (# of fleets), Espionage as mentioned earlier, and then really its your choice! Dont forget to check the Tech screen in order to work out which tech will let you unlock new ships & technology. Important ships to unlock early are Dionysus(harvesting/resource saving), Gaia (building new colonies), Poseidon (fastest attack ship in the game and also great for knocking out artemis & missle batteries)

7) Build mines! And build them high... Once they are lvl 15+ they really start cranking out resources, and trust me you need every last spec of crystal & ore when trying to unlock those later levels of Tech.

8) Build droids and put them on your mines! Every droid adds 2% bonus to production... my lvl 18 ore mine brings in 3022/hour (72528/day) with 7 droids it brings in 3442/hour (82608/day) thats a difference of 10080 EVERY DAY! think how quickly those droids paid for themselves... and them think how quickly they help me build shiny new ships ;)

9) Scale your defences. If you fleet/resource save regularly people wont attack your planets (much) In fact my homeworld has still not been attacked! (probably shouldnt brag about that too much :P) But more importantly remember that 1 IPBM can wipe out ALOT of defences... and cost you ALOT of resources... so remember to build ABMs ASAP! and Don't forget your decoys! They take alot of punishment and they stop rapid fire! Oh and Ares ruin any defense... not much you can do about that. See also the below post about defences.

10) Have fun ;) and raid inactives!
