Does anyone have some more in depth guides about A Miner on their computers that they are willing to share/make downloadable?
Other guides are also welcome.
Already read the ones from pandis site and exule. |

with the current food market being controlled by 2 terrans, maybe tax would be good as a starter. 100 mineral research then all tax... |

99+ day(s) ago | PP said pretty much what all race does. But in details
Tax; Compared to the 2 other paths, you pretty much can`t go hybrid. Put all into housing ( 5 industry for missions ). Put 5,000 loyalty on a cluster/large before popping it or it will cost you too much. Like PP said, 20-25k c2 with a few U.Large will give you a nice high income. Careful about the food though! ( High base PR )
CG; Consumer Good. It will ALWAYS sell no matter what. But compared to the other 2 ways, its the slowest one imo. Research Industry all the way and get high land :)
Mineral; You don`t care about the size of your clusters, you just want planets count. Mineral miner also let you use your land in industry to add a small income in the same time. It wont affect your mineral production ( 5 industry rest mining )
Also a factor if you want to hoard planets or not. Mineral Miner make most profit from it considering they dont need the land at all.
( Careful! If you choose to cluster your hand-made c2s into a c3 it`s at your own risk of losing them! ) |

99+ day(s) ago | Dont think anyone made guides. But its quite simple. Choose your income stream. Either you go tax or mineral.
Mineral miners you need as many viral C4s as you can get.
Tax miner you need two 25kc2s and some 10k larges.
When you build a fleet spam as much as you can. Lyth, flysch and lictors are excellent for this. (maybe also saphhire).
When you are in DP spam bases - preferably Hoko.
Try to hit as many stacked fleets with destroyers and cruisers. That will make the owner of these fleets whine like mad. Thats funny.
At some point when you get tired with this, try a UW.
I guess this cover the lifecycle of miners. My comprehensive description on what to do should get you going instantly. |
