Re: Colony

At the beginning of the game it's okay to have your colonies close together (within several systems) but I'd bunch them in small groups spread out in several Galaxies.

As the game progresses, keep those planets that have large fields and abandon the smaller ones for large planets spread throughtout the Universe.

I have seen several players have as many as nine planets within a single system. I simply wirte down the system address and write "farm" behind it. Those people have no idea the hurt they've set themselves up for.

Try to keep one planet slot open for a "roamer" or "mobile" planet (one that can be placed temporarily in a target rich area).
