				 Re: RTH has filled all slots; discuss the game here! 
 
	Well, if we're talking total resources, I'm over 1.4 million, so I guess I'm not doing so bad after allQuote: 
	
		| Originally posted by Karibu: I have 1.5 resources because I made some mistakes at the beginning
  Otherwise I would have well over 2 by now. However, I am starting to catch up   |   .  Even if I'm 6th out of 9 players!!  But some of you have previous experience with this kind of game, so it's to be expected. 
 Hey everybody, attack Ragnarok!!  He's only got 80 colonies!!  Even I have almost all my planets colonized!!
    For bases, I'm well over 100. 
 And now for my request:  Does anybody know a better way to use those pesky planets that have about 20% of each resource?  So far I've been putting a Space Yard, Atmospheric Mod Plant, and then Monoliths.  But is there something better to put on those planets??  It just seems to be a bit of a waste of space for very little return.  And no, I don't need any more fleet/ship training centers, mineral scanners/system mineral scanners, or storage.
 
 And that brings up another question
    About how much would be a good amount of resources to have in storage.  Right now I have about 1 million minerals, and about 500K for the organics and rads.  Is that about right, or not enough?? 
 Thanks a lot for helping me out here
  I owe you guys!

 store what you cannot spend.  If you cannot spend it build more base yards...

				 Re: RTH has filled all slots; discuss the game here! 
 You want as Tesco said regarding storage. Plus alot more!     In RTH 1 I had well over 4 million in each resource in storage. 
 And those planets with 5 facility slots, put on them Value Improvement facilities(improve value of planet 3% each year) and also Atmosphere Modification Plants this will change the atmosphere to one that is breathable over 2 years and then you will have 20+ facility spaces.
 
 That is the main reason I am so far behind in resource production right now, because I haven't built too many monoliths or anything yet. I am focusing on getting the climent control centers and atmosphere modification plants going to enable more resources when they finally come Online. But rest assure I will catch up.

				 Re: RTH has filled all slots; discuss the game here! 
 Doh! I did forget to add that to my empire this game!       I demand a restart!    j/k 
 I think I included just about every other trait you can think of though. Well, almost anyways...
 
 Karibu, yes Religious will come in handy for that one matter. It has been really hard not to design and build ships with the talisman but I will be able to pull through.

 I just finished converting my first atmosphere (in this game).  Is anyone else in the conveted-atmosphere cool club?

 Edit: And probably within the next 5 turns I will have 10 more or so completed.
