Tips related to being crashed

[Orlandu]

Just a few things on how to avoid getting crashed, and preparing your colonies for an easier rebuild if you do get crashed.

-Don't leave your fleet sitting around
-If you don't think you're going to be around(have plans), fleetsave.
-Get good mines.
-Find out who can crash your fleet, and where their fleet is
-If you get crashed, build probes and cargoes first(raiding)
-If you're caught in a phalanx, either try to get some of the df yourself, or ask an alliance member for help.

I didn't bother to go into detail with any of this, but if you've got any questions/comments/whatever, then shoot.

Only when the engine is upgraded.

faster, you can manipulate them into perfect groups to only send what you need to get the required res, so generally much more efficient.  you can get about 2* as much raiding in using them over lc's.  in the 2 weeks I started using them, I've gained in excess of 70 ranks.  They are amazing, nolie.

Everyone who gets hurt by being crashed should have Impulse 5

Getting crashed always hurts, it doesn't really matter how far along you are.
