J1 What do you buy and do?

[Doomreaperx]

What do you usually buy and move on J1?

[allweneedislove]

3 transports

[marechallannes]

2 transports, 1 minor complex and attack on J2.

[lnmajor]

Where would you place minor complex?

[marechallannes]

Kiangsi would be the place. You have the option to upgrade the complex.

[JamesAleman]

Three transports, and attack on J1.

[MaherC]

3 Transports, attack on J1, crack a beer and laugh menacingly while the guy across from me flips out about how unbalanced the game is.

[RedHunter]

3 transports and launch your attacks with the aim of killing as much fleet as possible.
And the game is unbalanced.

What about with the new ‘Alpha Setup’? Same dead? Three TRs and attack?

Personally I dont think that’ll work quite as well anymore, but I could be wrong.

The new setup flops everything on it’s head.  You NEED to have a gameplan when you make your turn 1 buy.  If you buy three transports there needs to be a reason, and not just you want to take everything.  I have a plan I want to try out that involves 2 turns of all transport buys for a J3 attack, but I haven’t tried it yet
