Evil
Empire Tactics
The
Empire is probably one of the most played races
in the game. At least, everyone seems to like to
play them. One of the reasons for this is that the
Gorbie is the strongest ship in the game. The other
reasons vary, but the Empire is a great race to
play and if you plan right, you can win playing
them. (More)

The
Empire Probe Gambit
Early
in a game the Empires most deadly weapon is the
PL-21 probe. The first mission for the probes is
to seek out and find all enemy starbase's using
the Dark Sense. After this is accomplished the PL-21
can then be turned into one of the most feared weapons
in the game. With your probes in enemy space you
can see and know all. You can get a turn by turn
report of what new planets the enemy colonises.
This is important because you want your probes to
be able to move about freely with out fear of the
enemy. (More)

Ruling
Through Fear
Before
I begin I would like, if I may, to start with
a disclaimer of sorts. Strategy guides are really
nothing more than an collection of the opinions
and ideas of one guy (or gal, if any of them write
this kind of thing... or two guys, or however many
guys that it took to write it). These opinions are
formed as a result of the writer's exposure to game
and battle experience, combined with his natural
attitude towards various things and whoever's strategy
guides out there on the net that he might read.
Depending on the first two factors, he may believe
everything the guide says. Or, the stuff he reads
might cause him to stop, think about it a bit more
then adjust his views... or he might treat whatever
he reads with a healthy dose of doubt and skepticism.
That is how I want you to treat what I am about
to write here. Read it, think about it, then decide
whether you're going to accept it, discuss it, dispute
it, or ignore it. (More)

Imperial
Logistics
Logistics
is the aspect of war that deals with the supply
of military goods and war material. Yeah so you
may think it's boring and dull... listen up pal,
this ain't Doom, you gotta have some brains if you
wanna have the guns to blast everyone else! Logistics
is particularly important if you play carrier races
like I do, for two reasons. (More)
