How to start a round in Main

[mikael roy]

I was wondering if anyone had a tutorial on how to start a round in main. It would benefit everyone. For the lasts rounds I tried getting segs in extend operations and the getting money from them. I worked but I lost about 20,000turns doing that to gain around 200,000,000$.

Thanks

Mik

Please read this guide in full, especially the mission types. You will get a lot more credits if you do some missions:

Other then donations there is no shortcut for getting an income established you have to do the work. You have to do missions, incursion, pvp  or mining the choice is yours but you must invest your time.

i'm not saying you don't know how to play, i am just saying that is why you are ahead of those who have to grind missions to get some creds at the start of a new round.  new people need to understand they need to do that, once they max out like you, they will have lots of cash to donate and get a head start on the next round

i just returned to the game but i've already established my opinion on the best start i know of atm. next round i'll do it...anyway for me it's buy 2x 5 mil ships, 1 in each fleet (i've tested my 5mils, done 1,2mil fp with them and they're 157k fp together, under 500k fp is no risk at all). then wait for an incursion and beat up aliens without having to move around wasting turns until i have multi and pinpoint probes. then start hunting aliens with them while researching space station and mining facility with the money i make. will try to do bounties at the same time to get my commander level up (CP). with a lot of luck i might get bonus CP from the votes in the start too, that would be awesome...anyway when i have a few 100mil and the research for station & facility completed i'll take out reavers with swarmer fleets and mine the resources, find a location for the station and set it up.
the next day after i should have the money for 2 ships able to do encounters and i'd keep hunting aliens, encounters and bounties while researching the next space station & facility.

... i won a round after i started a month after everyone else..

apart from $10 in cp at the start i use my affiliate later in the round for turns when its much more advantages

oh that's why you get a headstart...donating for CP in the start so you get station up fast. i see...

[Spayed]

well think about it, its easy to make the cash. easy 2 get the turns, but hard 2 get the cp..

[baltic]

i know, the first thing i'd need is a gold account though

[Spayed]

maybe u should do that then, cause they help more then anything else

[deezee66]

ahh just donate for CP
