OK. I've actually done it now. only the first 2 constructors give you 10% then the next 4 give you 20%. This makes it easier. I noticed I need to have a colony outside of the system to win though.
The techs I can get straight away by trading with the iconians with the tech I start with. the problem is that 1 constructor gives you 10% build so I figure you have to use 10 constructors and you just simply lose too much money too fast.
OK. I've done conflagation by using economy treaties, setting up economy starbases and having plenty of colonies so the population builds up large quickly, to over come the economy nightmare with starting with such a large defecit. But I cannot do the nightmares mission. You end up with a defecit of roughly -650 per week, this is hopeless. In next to no time you can easily end up with a balance of -20,000. How on earth are you supposed to do this mission. The economy is rediculous. <br
