I built some transports. I right clicked on an enemy planet. It just sits there in orbit. I built another did same thing. That one accually invaded the planet. I built about 4 more, sent to various planets and they just sit there in orbit. I cannot figure out why the ONE ship landed the troops and the others won't. Just right clicking on the enemy planet should do it, right? This is why I'm frustrated.
Now the question's:
1. Whats the difference between sending a constructor to a "resouce" and making it mine and just turning one into a starbase? Do starbases effects stack (say 2 military bases in close proximity)?
2. Fleets. I can't figure them out. I researched enough logistics to form a fleet. It seems every turn the fleet disbands. I click on a ship and it takes out single.
3. Ship design. The status bar on the bottom is giving 2 statuses, the foreground and background of the bar. What's this mean?
4. Can I get a quick summary on what is planet specific and what is global (galactic). IE factories, do they just let that planet build, say, ships faster or do they contribute to a galactic resource pool? Like I am assuming all research type buildings do.
5. I can't figure out how to declare war.
6. Well this could go on forever. I'll stick with 5 for now.
I couldn't even win against 1 opponent on easy.
