GameTips

Tip 1:
------
As the pod racers say (oops, wrong universe),
"Run what ya brung." In other words, never jam a
square peg into a round hole: Don't try to turn the
Klingons into diplomats or make the Ferengi warriors.
Tip 2:
------
Expand first, fight later. Don't dump a lot of
credits into your navy until you have contacted at
least two races. Build your infrastructure first.
Tip 3:
------
Dilithium is a key material. Fight hard for any
system that contains it.
Tip 4:
------
Shipyards extend your reach. A vessel's range is
calculated from the nearest shipyard. So build shipyards
on the outlying planets in order to explore/conquer further.
