I have to ask though:
1. Will I get to do a retropost for the first month.
2. If so, do I get to start building in January with the resource outputs, or is there no basically building if the Raloi have no stockpile left after buying the initial products.
3. Since Colony ships are Heavy Vessels, do they require Military Shipyards to build and can't be built in normal shipyards? If so, I'm going to replace an Urban Area and a Fuel Depot with a Colony Ship in my initial build.

Certainly.
Your pre-purchased infrastructure will produce resources at the beginning of January, so you'll be able to use those resources for construction 'as soon as the RP starts', as it were.
They do, yep. A Colony Ship can be a good investment, but remember the bootstrap effect.

Ah but the Volus, now there's a race that could be great to fill the spot of.

How would you define the bootstrap effect in this context, I'm only familiar with the vagaries of company mergers etc here.

Also can we reclassify Mars? In the wiki it has a population of more than 3 million people and was candidate for terra forming .

Kandex wrote:Alright, thanks! I've thought of the bootstrap effect, but estimate that in the first few months, I'll quickly run into a bottleneck that leads me burn pretty much the entire time my Reclaimers advantage is active waiting to finally be able to build a colony ship if I don't already have one, while being forced to pay through the nose for orbital structures and space stations due to my technological backwater disadvantage in the meantime if I want to build anything in that time.
Ovstylap wrote:I asked the first question previously, and it is to do with the gravity wells. It is prohibitively more expensive to build infrastructure and transport resources into orbit from a spacebody with higher mass, than it is to do it from one of its satellites.
Like how it would take less fuel to launch from the Moon, than it would to launch from Earth.
On the second question, OP's discretion but I would imagine it's a similar case for you as it was for me with Digeris, with them being Terran worlds only.

If I have a Dreadnought instead of an Urban Area, that Urban Area is going to produce hundreds of Credits over the course of the RP, which can be used to build further Urban Areas, etc. The Dreadnought, on the other hand, for most folks won't add anything to their economy. So diverting resources to a military is a balancing act, since you're strangling your economy (but a losing war will probably strangle it even more thoroughly).
