Then click continue.ĮMPIRE COLOUR, (dealers choice), EMPIRE COUNT (up to you, I prefer all 8 opponents), DIFFICULTY (start off maybe with Hard to test out these strategies, but eventually you can go up to Brutal X 4), EMPIRE NAME (your choise) and RACE NAME. I suggest customising it as above and then saving under a special name, so that you don’t need to re-customise every time. – –Ĭredit to this community page listing all the technologies.Ĭhoose your race first. The best 2 races I’ve been able to find with the best special techs, are the Humans and the Draylok. Keeping these last 2 though means that homeworld production is maximised right from the start.Īs far as race goes, they’re mostly the same, except for the experimental techs. The last 2 picks can be switched out with spiritual to give an empire-wide bonus. Resourceful is cheap at twice the price because it allows you to get the resource bonus after owning just 2 of one type of resource. Subterranean allows you to immediately have 3 population Ultra Rich Asteroid belts which can churn out Titans. Tree Hugger allows you to ignore a lot of pollution, thereby maximising production. Titans will allow you to very quickly (possibly within 55 turns of starting) field a missile Titan that can stand up to anything at this stage of the game, including Antarans. Once you have cloning vats population won’t be an issue, decreased hit points and weapon damage are easily overcome just by dint of the fact that you’ll be fielding Titans right away and ground combat has become essentially obsolete with the most recent updates. These add up to the maximum negative 10 picks for negative traits and they have the least detrimental effect of all the negative traits that I could find.

In order to beat the Brutal X 4 level, there are a number of picks that need to be taken, almost all of thee below.

As a result I’ve put some information in this guide that I wasn’t able to find elsewhere, hopefully it helps someone. After scouring all the other guides I could find, I discovered that there are massive gaps in the knowledge base of the community.
