To win the game, try to capture as many planets as you can, but make sure you have enough money to support your army...buy more drones if you can, but do not over spend or bankrupt yourself by having negative finances for too long.

• on the first few moves try to buy as many drones as you can and capture the silver planets to increase your area finances
  • Don't buy larger aliens or , unless you need them. This is where many new to the game over spend, you have to pay for your army's upkeep
• next step
  • You need to claim an area on the board. Do your best to remove anyone behind you, so you only have a frontal attack to deal with. Don't worry to much about an area you can't keep or win. Use your army to take and keep an area.

Xiphias Cost		Golderos=$
1 Drone $10.	2 Drones = 1 Soldier	1 Drone + 1 Soldier = 1 captain
Self-destructing costs 15 Golderos per alien level
Upkeep per turn
A drone $2.		A rocket $2
A Soldier $6.		A captain $20

Remember:- The amount you earn or loose per turn is per player turn, so on a 2 player game there are two turns before it is your move again (even more for multiplayer games).

This is especially important to remember if you are losing money, you need to make sure you won't bankrupt yourself before it is your turn again
