When you first meet a race
	
			 
             
			
		
		
		
		How do you judge your self. 
 
Are you like me and go.  Damn  I am in trouble.  
 
Or 
 
'I have her. Release the dogs of war' 
 
Yep it is another topic about first contact. 
 
Does and don'ts 
 
But mostly how you judge your preconseption (they should enable the spell checker for this site )of strenghts and weaknesses of your race vs what your guessing for the alien side. 
 
Try to keep the topic to the first few turns you meet someone. 
 
When I first meet a race I always assume I am behind in ships so I start cranking them out Quanity replaces Quality until I feel safe. 
 
And I am always behind on research.  Never matters what happens but I know I am behind.
