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.


Strong empire:
--------------
To have an almost invincible empire, take any side and set its level
to 5, then set everything else to 1. You now have more worlds, moneym
and better units than everybody else.
