So what do you do with Mars?

February 24, 2006 4:39 PM from

I usually just throw down a couple of labs, focus on social until they're built, then switch to research, but I'm no expert. So what's the best use anyone has gotten out of this small starting planet?

Well, all I know is COLONIZE IT! In my current game I neglected to colonize it because there were so many better planets around. Later after my neighbors the Torians got desperate for colonies they landed on Mars. Of course it immediately went into civl disobedience, so they started moving a constructor into the system which I assumed they would use to build an influence base to maintain control of Mars.

Naturally I delcared war and decimated every Torian for 4 sectors.

I let the AI colonize it. It will pop over eventually. When I do end up getting it I usually just make it all research.

I use it to store unwanted civil dissidents.

Actually, I keep the gate to hell on Mars. But that's personal taste.

I take it from the humans and use it a launching point for my assault on Earth...
