you really should get in a well established alliance but anyhow the primary role of pships is to protect your real fleet from attacks and can be used for scouting/raiding

you really need a continuous income either from a planet, secret base or both

Yeah this is what you really need. The Top Ten players should all have planets producing trillion of creds a day and/or mining stations (with high cloak) and/or creds from secret base

Also upgrading your fleet by 1.5x as well and remembering to have full marines in all of them.

hmm hard to start now.. but just get mission ships.. 4-5.. each one being abt 1.4 times bigger than the previous ship.. a couple fleets of pships above ur mains, marines.. planets help but theres no sense in u starting one now... just do encrypts and encounters

Also, put less importance on segments. Segments on WARS are the solid gold, most important asset. On main you can still make plenty of money without them (although they help quite a bit, especially with early worker growth, and for middle game with planet growth.)

Credits are what they should be: the key commodity. There should be enough encounters that you can keep upgrading your mains and still have plenty of encounters to hit. With the new interactive missions / encounter updates I'm not sure how true this is anymore.

And like Cam said, mission ships behind pships.
