I believe you should play the Planetfall you are dealt. As the PKs, I've gotten stuck on a small peninsula ... anemic economy ... politicked my way to pacts ... given gifts and kept the peace ... but can't seem to catch up. Thoughts? |

1. Probe teams and probe foils, lots of them. Steal tech, and drain energy. You can catch up fast this way. 2. If you can stomach it, Nerve Gas weapons are a great way to make up for inferior conventional weaponry. Be prepared for sanctions. 3. Planet Busters, too expensive for my taste, but effective. Everyone will declare vendetta. Be prepared for Planet to impose sanctions of its own! |

use probe teams, and use diplomacy to turn factions against each other.. probe teams can be good for this, provided u don't get caught. Cause if factions r fighting each other, especially on the same landmass, they will go all out at each other if u "help" it along. Just have your units with nerve gas ready in case u get caught doing instigating something with your probe teams... planet busters help too  |
