Default Re: Calculations

If I calculate anything at all, I do it subconsciously (sp?). I just play.

About the only calcs I do are checking that I don't have silly priced ships, say costing 3000 minerals when most shipyards can only build at 2900 a year.

Ohh and I also occasionaly do a quick and dirty calc if mineral scanners and suchlike are worth it.

Default Re: Calculations

I will often work warship designs down in increments of 150% in the late game to facilitate conversions, and find I'll do lots of fiddling with units when I've a good idea where the enemy will strike and I've only one or two turn of construction (at least if I've a chance to save the planet).
