Default Re: Any good tips for starting out?

I routinely leave a garrison of only two missle and two melee units in a citadel, and it hardly ever gets attacked. Maybe I just don't have the difficulty set high enough.

I think the most critical thing is to seize a second citadel as soon as possible. You only need to hold one to stay in the game. (Just to make sure I'm being clear, I'm using "citadel" to mean any fortification that lets you recruit troops, not just the big ones that each player starts with.)
