  1. I have to disagree that social helps shipbuilding in that if you are not sponcering a shipyard then your ship construction is not added to social construction they changed it for crusade. Now if you meant that you could build the shipyard quicker then you need to clarify in the text. No need for beginner confusion. Gameplay affects starting production on planets it would be nice to say this. An explanation of tbe top menu, escape menu, planetary build menu, planetary governor window, and the small map would be nice.

Paying attention to building types on hubs is important. Bonuses first is for tile second is for adjancency is important.

To my opinion you should mention that when you rush buy you are paying a lot more in credits than what the manufacturing cost is, and there is plenty to buy later.

I needs to be i'm, and farer needs to be farther. I needs to be it. Bkac needs to be back.

When you name a ship, or a planet it helps to make the name meaningful like heavy fighter b1s1

A othergood ideological option i instead of me.

You should probably let them know that they cant trade until the research universal translator. Usually doesnt need to research this until after you meet someone.

Its called shipyard decay which can actually turn even though you can still sponcer you will get no construction.

Ok but instead of going near the star when it is in sight Left click on it in the lower left corner it will give you information about habital planets, and resources there is no need to move closer as soon as you see the star.

Senat is spelled senate. I would use the u.n. as a example for the galactic council instead.

Tech trading, or trading in general my advice here is 2 things pay attention to which ais like you. If they like you they will give you better deals. If they dont th3y will try, and rip you off. 2nd is the quantity for price is dictated on how much theyhave. Before i tech trade i want to discuss something else. I want to acknoledge our friendship.

They do some times give good deals when they offer trades. Other times they dont. You will have to have a value of stuff.

Instead of saying we set, i would say i would suggest instead it sound more like you dont have to do this.

You also might want to point out that the fewer colonists put on a ship the more colony ships you can make quicker.

Dont trade now with them that way you cant trade away your tech. Ive played the game for a long time, so i know what you are saying. In english this is to vague dor a beginner. Try dont trade away specialization techs before you research them, because, if you do you wont be able to research it, because you are allowed to research one specialization tech. You can trade for the others after you research the one they dont have.

I understand that you are german, so i understand the problem of translating into english, im only trying to help.

Ideologic is ideology.
