Well I just sent out a small fleet of 5 destroyers to destroy a guy that just hit science level 2, and I've sent a colonization ship to an uninhabited planet to take that over. Both should arrive tomorrow and hopefully my fleet does me proud.
all the surrounding galaxies are blue, some strong white, 1 green and 1 yellow, i have a fleet of 8 bships 8 cruisers and 49 destroyers along with 2 lvl 9 starbases, 2 lvl 8,1 lvl 7 and 1 lvl 5, should i just bring all my starbases to lvl 10 while building up slowly more bs's n cruisers then go out and terrorize the other galaxies
How do you check whats in orbit? I've had that cronodragon guy in orbit of my first planet for a few days now, I cant tell whats up there and if I have the strength to fight it off.
I've been converting the pps to cash, I dont know if thats a good idea or not but it seems better then letting them all go to waste just sitting there

Not a good idea if you are going to liberate a planet that is under siege. If you think you can get it back, don't spend all PP. You lose 60% of it. However if you are writing off that planet then Spend all PP.
Everybody in my star system has 6 starbases. I'm the only one that has 2 on both of my planets o_o Is this a bad thing? I'm currently working up on a fleet for defense. Best D is O and I have 3 Destroyers and 1 Battleship so far.

I'm a total newbie, just started today, I decided I couldn't resist any longer, considering this thread is nearing 500 posts... =P what advice do people have for newbs? I'm pumping all my res so far into farms and factories, so I get production faster... there's 3 other people in my system, but I'm the only one with 2 population... is one of you big people gonna just stomp on me and end my game? =P

okay. if the planet is EMPTY then you send a colony ship. if the planet has a guy on it, first you need to siege it [with combat ships]. once it is in siege, get transport ships equal to the amount of population he has and take them to his planet. then when they take it, it will be yours.

REMEMBER: you get 100% speed bonus when you travel to your own planet. If it indeed did take 72 hours (3 days) then you will still be still be 12 hours behind him.
Have you adjusted all time displays in settings to your time, cos the default is servers time, you are from Australia, probably East Coast so that would make you 8 hours ahead of server time?
This will not help you now, but researching energy should be number 1 unless you are bound to be limited by your social levels. It is important to be able to travel anywhere as quick as possible. It can be the difference between victory and defeat. There is nothing better than arriving 15 minutes before a fleet and winning where otherwise you would have lost.
Okay. if you can't spend all points there. then my foremost suggestion is to only colonise places where you can. It may be too hard to go in towards the centre, this I can understand too. So if there is another viable option where you can, leave this go and save your culture for a place where you can.
If you want to keep this place. Try and get a defensive fleet before he gets there, use the arrival time calc, to estimate the hour of your arrival. If you aren't going to make it, then you have to look at the 2nd factor, if he colonises it, will he be able to spend all his points there. If he is able to, then just leave it alone. Attacking planets where people can spend all point is not advised. It is what caused my demise.
IF he can't you can take it back off him, cos it will still have the infrastructure, you will just have to restart your pop again, which shouldn't take too long cos you already have 5 farms. Then build a sizeable fleet, with 5-6 transports (always throw in a couple of extra, they are cheap and there is nothing worse than getting there and not having enough) and then send your fleet before he gets there. He wont get a warning of you coming, so while he is trying to establish his defenses you are speeding your way there, and you will probably win. I have been done a couple of ways like that too.
Again my foremost advice is to colonise somewhere you can spend all points too. But I understand, even I get sentimental attachments to my little darlings, and I just can't let the infidel have them. So fighting is another good option.
Time spent in reconaissance is seldom wasted.
Regards Es Quatro
I just did some checking..... Okay he can't spend all points there, but that is his home system, and you won't be able to spend all points there and it is quite far away from your home. IF you want to keep it, then I suggest sending something before he arrives so you can take it right from under his nose. His energy must be bad if it is taking him 24 hours.

Production comes in sooo slooooow at the beginning it seems...
Luckily everyone around me are starters too or I might be in trouble...
I added 7 destroyers and 2 cruisers, so i have two fleets going to defend my planet. Both i assume will get there in time - it seems likely.
So i have a grand total of 17 destroyers, 6 cruisers, 1 battleship, and lvl 2 starbase protecting my planet. hopefully i will be able to log on tmz morning and upgrade a few lvls as well <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Patience,
the whole idea behind this is, that it gives you another reason to play NS, to take your mind of AW and how slow PP is coming in.
Come back after a couple of hours. Then voila

This is the best part about ASTROWARS,
the feeling you get, when your enemy thinks they are going to screw you over, but you screw them over instead. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
