UniTolCyber?

Postby wombatron » Mon Oct 27, 2008 10:44 am

Is Unification/Tolerant/Cybernetic (with standard negatives) a viable race in an MP game? The Cybernetic would allow more early-game HW research, and you would be able to research Cloning Centers instead of Hydro Farms, boosting your pop growth. Any thoughts? Also, would this be allowed in a game where Uni/Tol/+1 Prod is banned?

Most would agree, no.
Cyber is not seen as a good option, due to its inherient prod penalty.

As far as whether or not it can be used in UniTol banned games, you might have to check with who you are fighting against.
If they do not feel threatened, you could be fine.

I have played that race in solo games, and it usually starts off slower than others I have tested, such as UniAquaProd+2LgRHW. Since Most games are in Organic Rich Galaxies.
In Mineral Rich, and larger galaxies, I did ok, but, those are not common online.
UniAquaSubtProd+1 is a good choice there, since it compensates for fewer planets, with more pop per planet.
MOO1 Fan, MOO2 Fan, MOO3 needed too many changes = hopeless, getting older waiting for a MOO4 (still).
