Quickest way to get out of domes?

[DirectorTsaarx]

You can also research troops, design a few troops and troop transports, load the troops onto the transports, and drop the troops on an enemy planet (assuming your transport doesn't get destroyed by weapon platforms). Then you've taken an enemy planet without having to wait for his surrender.

[DirectorTsaarx]

Almost forgot - you can also capture one of the enemy's colony ships and set up a new colony on a world with the appropriate atmosphere... or, if you want the tech, just transfer the new slaves (I mean immigrants ) to an appropriate existing colony and then analyze the colony ship to get the colonizing tech.

Personally, this is one of my main research targets. I want the atmosphere renewer as quickly as possible so, I do a targetted research on that area (planet utilization)very early.

I agree w/ Spyder. Get those Atmosphere Converter III's. They take 20 turns, but boost your facility capacity by a factor of 5 (on domed planets). They will make your chart jump dramatically once the atmospheres start to be converted and you can boost your production by a good 50% to 70%.
