  Money on A.Miners  

I have heard that you need indutry and agriculture to get money to get goods to sell. You can also build up a large population reachearch housing and agriculte and get tax.Im trying to do a bit of both but is there any other way than selling your market. Please help any successfull A.Miners im a newbie miner.

Thanks Kan255

It`s really either one or the other. Research into mining not only allows you to pull ore quicker, but it produces more minerals per turn. It also doesn`t matter if you have any mining infrastructure on your colonies at all. Mining is easy and cheap since you don`t really have a need for infrastructure. You could have a 10 land C1 and it would produce as much mineral as a 4000 C1. Saves on population costs to go as low as possible and it makes exploring a snap. So if you`re going A.Miner, get 5 research into industry for the +5 mining mission bonus (save it for later, don`t use it right away) and focus everything else into Mining. When you hit the 2500 turn research mark, complete the mission and save yourself a LOT of time and you`ll make yourself a lot of money.
Tax Miners are really just rewardable Guardians without the good ships, save for Lictor. Get the biggest colonies you can and don`t forget the borders. Pay for your food and keep the population and loyalty count as high as possible. No other infrastructure needed. Ever. Missions for that one are optional, IMO. +Loyalty rewards are alright, but the mining bonus just cuts what research you could have in Housing.

Simple, sell the minerals you mine on the market, and BAM!, easy money.

mining is ungodly easy money, get advanced scouts, 2 c2s, research your tree(getting borders when necessary), look at the market, notice you have about 2-4 billions worth of minerals, laugh, then cry because you dont know how to stack with miner. ^^

best to go for 1 research type:
As miner the following will make you rich:
mineral miner (research mining only, needs planets, any size)
tax miner (research housing, and reward your hungry people. Buy food, never produce as miner, needs big planets)
CG miner (research industry, needs big plants)
