Which is better...

Unless, like you would do with your economic power, he took advantage of thos bonuses and cleans up you commerce-loving pukes so quickly you won't be able to say "supply-crawler go boom!"

Share the love!

For me tho, +2 Support and +1 Economy is best. Why? 1 extra energy at every base, and +2 minerals at every base. It's better than free recycling tanks (which you can build and research quickly)

+2 Efficiency is a little to easy to make up for in SE, imo (but I appreciate it dearly, being a gaian freak :P )

+2 effic and +1 econ. Demo, FM + wealth on top of that nets +4 effic and +4 econ. Amazing! Paradigm economy with +4 energy from every base square.

The +2 min from +2 support is nice, and it cancels out the demo penalty. But to say it's +2 min at every base isn't quite true. It takes time and minerals to build the units to take advantage of those mins. One crawler on a forest does the same thing.

*shrugs* Each to their own though.

Support and Econ for me

I voted Economy and Efficiency, unshockingly. Support is very convenient early on, but becomes less and less relevant as you climb the technology tree. Clean reactors, mineral crawlers, the Living refinery, various SE choices. On the other hand, efficiency becomes more and more useful the larger and more advanced your faction becomes.

I'm used to playing PK, so just not having an efficiency penalty is a bonus.
