Battle Units?

DD, think of how you could benefit from that. I mean, with everyone blindly bulding a military, you could focus on SP's and the home front (once, of course, you have the proper defence in place).

The cheapest way to get your first volley of planet busters is to cash in supply crawlers at most of your bases for prototype development of planet buster, up to the value of a non-prototype PB. Then complete the prototype at your HQ and the next turn all of the PB's get completed and vola, 10 planet busters to get some revenge for those lost formers It's MUCH cheaper if you upgrade the crawlers first, depends if you consider that cheating or not, I don't

After that it is easy enough to build a PB in 10 turns w/o eco-damage, get 10 bases building PB's and that's a PB a turn. Once in a OCC I had mineral production above 320 and could build a PB a turn, don't ask how high the ecodamage got in that game. It doesn't take long launching a planet buster a turn for you to run out of PB targets. Then mop-up with gravships.

Incidentely my idea of a PB war is one were I have all the planet busters, I would probably have a heartattack if the AI ever PB'd me.

I like them Deathstar Gravships.
