Starting Out
How to start?

Hello everybody. I've played a few games so far. One or 2 with each of the factions, but I didn't finish a couple of them.
I was just wondering what you guys do when you first get in the game? I build a capital ship builder and upgrade the asteroids around my base. At the same time I pump out 2 scouts and set them to explore. The problem I'm having is that in all the games I've played the scouts find 1 or 2 asteroid worlds and the rest are ice or fire. That means in order to expand I need to get to tech 2 in the resource tree. I play with Vasari mostly by the way. To do this I need two platforms that upgrade my resource tech tree. Thats a lot of crystal.
I think it would be better and get the ball rolling more if the fire and ice planet upgrades were tech 1. That way you save yourself an extra 100 or so crystal and can expand to those first few worlds quicker. You can also then build a weapons lab instead of the second resource lab and get some laser upgrades. Unless I'm just starting out wrong.
