The complete guide of where to start
Posted: Sun May 03, 2009 8:58 pm
So you just joined Zorg Empire. Where do you do? Finding an alliance is a good place to start. Join a high ranked alliance by clicking "ranking" and then setting the bars at the top to "Alliance, general, 1-100" respectively. Find one that you like and submit an application. They should send you some supplies if you ask the leader. If they don't, consider finding a new alliance.
Now that you've found an alliance, you're on to building. Click the just joined button at the bottom left of your screen and follow it. When you're done, click the technologies button and work towards building a colony ship. To do this you need impulse engine level 3 and ship yard level 4. Getting this is important because you can use it to colonize more planets, up to 21. For more info on colonization click the following link: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=316#p2294
Throughout the game remember to research things. Espionage technology is a good thing to acquire early on.
Now that you have a few planets, people may start raiding you. Build a few minor defences, but DON"T GO OVERBOARD. Remember: the key to a building a successful empire is getting resources. And because you're not yet at a point where you can rely on raiding (attacking), you have to use mines to generate resources. Please note that raiding defenceless inactives will speed up your growth.
Now that your planets are defended, start upgrading your mines. Keep the deuterium mines at 5-8 for a while; you don't need them yet. Remember that even though solar plants seem good, fusion reactors are much more efficient, so use a healthy balance of both. Do NOT use solar sattelites as your main energy generators; they can easily be destroyed.
When your mines are around level 15, you can start doing some REAL raids. Build some cargos and fighting ships. Start espionaging people near you, and attack some that you think you can beat. Raiding will eventually be your main way of getting resources.
As your empire grows, continue to colonize planets, build mines, raid others, and research.
PLEASE TRY ZORG EMPIRE OUT FOR A FEW DAYS BEFORE YOU QUIT ON IT. IT CAN BE BORING TOWARD THE BEGINNING BUT IT'S A BLAST ONCE YOU'VE DEVELOPED YOUR EMPIRE AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING.
