My strategy in Strategies Stardock Forums

Please notice that this is just one strategy - it won't work for all galaxies, and there are other strategies that makes sense as well. :) I didn't cover every minor detail - I just wanted to give a general concept of this strategy to gives newbies an idea how it works. Advanced players want laern much new stuff here, I guess. Comments welcome! THE AIM Most time I play towards Alliance Victory. Why?

[quote]There should be no more than 9 members per empire. All members should be required to submit at least one game a week or be removed.

Hawai, this would be very frustrating for those players who are not among the Top20.

I can confirm that bug, happend to me yesterday: The Altarians and the Torians were allied, the Altarians got exterminated (with movie playing and everything) and some 20 turns later, when I attacked the Torians, the message from the Altarians came - 'You attacked our ally, so we attack you.' :p Got a real scared at first because I thought it was some event that brought a dead race back into the game, but then nothing else happend.
