Also read the Dubious Strategy Guide. It is old, and only pertains to stock games, but it is still useful for new players. It helped me when I started playing.

Also under the Freature at the very top, New Members Please Look Here, there are links to useful threads about tactics and strategies. Good luck and enjoy.

Again if you need any help, just ask.

We've all been newbies, and if one looks at the recent topics it's obvious I'm one aswell (See "Why Domed colonies on green dots ")

Monster tech stinks. The computer may as well just cheat lol. I came across them almost imediatly. And They destroy everything I have with little escort-like fighters. Can I turn that off? Cuz that really dumb lol. (I am the borg now, and I seem to be breezing through it. But as the Breen, and federation I just got nailed. It seems impossible to beat the game lol. How do you do it? Do you use cheats? Or give yourself an 'advantage' in the setup?

Space Monsters are supposed to be extremely tough. Research Mines (need Construction tech first) and deploy minefields over planets and critical WPs. This will help against monster raids (as well as other AIs).

You can delete the Star Trek Mod\Pictures\Races\Monsters folder (assuming it is a monsters folder...). No more monster races will appear. To be safer, you might want to move it to a different location, such as just in Star Trek Mod\Pictures\ (move the entire folder). That way, you can just move it back at a later date when you get better at the game.

Is there any addon/mod that has the andorians? If not, are the pics of the ships and stuff just pics? Or are they 3D renders? Cuz I only know how to model, not draw lol. (I really, really stick at drawing.)

AST has then in it IIRC. I do not know if the Star Trek Mod has them in it anymore...

The Andorians are in the Star Trek Mod as a minor race.

Do you want to play tham as a major race? If so I will post them and you can install them as such.
