Knowing when to use each ship will give you the edge in any situation. Small Cargo ships are the first of the cargo line that you can build. These ships are slow compared to most of the ships you can build, but you can increase their base speed. In the early game, Small Cargo ships are your only form of resource transportation, so you will use these extensively. They can carry 5,000 units each, so you can see why they are important ...

This means that if you have no or very very little of these compared to the rest of your defenses (lots of fodder) the rips will really go to town and can fire up to 160 times a piece in a single round shredding everything to bits. Whenever a rip hits a plasma turret or a shield dome, its turn will end however. ...

Not really. You can only have one research going at any given time, regardless of how many Research Labs you have. One or two research plants are ok. Since you may be able to research at Colony X while building a new Solar Plant at Colony Z. But each colony doesn’t needs a research plant. Especially if it has a low qty of fields.

You can’t say “1000 Small Lasers is best for a level 12 Metal Mine”. Why? It all depends on how tempting of a hit you are. If you have a million metal, million crystal and 500,000 deuterium sitting on your planet, there isn’t much in the way of defense that will keep you safe. Why? Because all defenses can be overcome with the right combination of Fleet and Interplanetary Missiles. Just the other day I spent 9 IPMs (interplanetary ...

The higher the shipyard, the faster you can build. Also, when upgrading a shipyard, you cannot build new fleets OR defenses. So keep this in mind when upgrading. Furthermore, you cannot cancel anything being built by the Ship Yard (which includes fleets and defenses).

From the Defenders viewpoint: * Destroyed attacking ships will go into your debris field. * Destroyed defending ships will go into your debris field. If you get hit with IPM's(Interplanetary Missiles) the debris does NOT go into your debris field. It gets vaporized. And remember, you have a 70% chance that your defenses will be rebuilt.
