Hi Been a while since I posted but seeing as I play frequently as the Yor (I am playing one game with them right now) I can contribute to this thread. The major differences you will notice playing as them are that they have a tech tree that is completely different in several branches they start with cybernetic history for instance. they also have (I just loaded the game to check) inherent race ability loyalty

Im surprised this is still going anyway The Yor get several advantages over other races in regard to research they get a very powerful starting research building as well as a tech that is immediately available which gives better research centres at about the time the AI is building basic research labs - outteching your opponents as the yor tends not to be an issue in my limited experience
I might be wrong about this so If I am apologies, but at 100% loyalty I think there is still a 0.000001R % chance of flip at higher than 100% this is eliminated I don't know how true this is but it does seem to be. This of course can be exploited like heck: you can colenise behind enemy lines to get better planets giving you a real boost to the colony rush
Ah ok I must have been reading the military modules thing then, (does not apply to resource star bases?) I don't really use things like protection fields anyway. Sorry about that. also that would make luck a very highly valuable skill then! Seeing as this is a newbie thread I have a question what: determines how many shots are taken in a round? the reason I ask is I frequently have 5 shots at an enemy fleet when I have three ships
[quote who="gedierond" reply="2" id="3365107"] Thanks for your reply! One thing about the starbases bit, though. I may be mistaken, but I think that the first defense and attack modules give starbases 2 points in every defense and attack types. Isn´t it that way?[/quote] Battle stations one gives one attack point to each category for a total of three (1/1/1) Mass driver Missile and Beam Protection values are 1/1/1 &n
Hmm several things I notice playing as the Yor They have exceptionally powerful manufacturing like you might expect. Economic bonuses are not quite as impressive at the point I am at in my game I would expect to be running at 4000BC per turn I am actually running at 1400 BC I imagine that the Yor are more impressive the larger the map (it may also be that I moved up a map size and that is whats doing it but still they seem to be unstoppable beyon
Thank you that was a great help I did that and my econ stabilized. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] A thought occurs to me in the case of the Yor is there an argument for not specializing?
Right Im new around here so Ill get to the point - How on earth do you make money playing as the Yor - Ive looked everywhere for strategies - Ive found all sorts of things but no guide on how to play as the Yor. I Have played custom games as the Terran and the Korath I won't claim to be awesome but I am competent I am playing at a level or two above normal, and I seem to do quite well. But the Yor vex me they
