Ok, I just joined a community game at the aurora forum as the New Dutch Republic.
We're all clusterfucked on Earth and genocidal destruction is imminent.
And because of my late start I'm at a technological disadvantage. (I'm conventional start + trans newton physics and the others already started geo surveying sol)
Anyone played a multi-faction earth before? I assume meson pdc's and a ground army are more important than in a normal game. Any other useful things?
oh...hello there *evil and wide grin of pure madness and darkness*
first off, you should focalize on "leaving earth" it's no use squabbling or attacking other players on earth, because then the other powers will retaliate, in order to avoid a stronger "future" enemy player AND also to share the "spoils" of the attacked and the attacker. first off, find a tech party, who's willing to share his tech with you in exchange of an alliance, some buildings, even population or similar.
but firstly, convert factories, mines excetera to trans-newtonian counterparts.
and don't worry, i too am a complete first player in this sort of campaign, however panopticon is a nice starmaster, so just ask him what you would like to do, and if it's possible, he'll do it. and make it simple too.
if the same nickname didn't make you understand, i'm the nicely commander of Neo-italy! the supreme dictator The Original! >.>
