In my current game (had to restart, again) it seems like the Klissans are fighting a lot more effectively than in earlier games. It's now 3002, and they have conquered ~12 solar systems already, while only 1 have been liberated by the alliance.
How aggressive are the Klissans in your games? Does it vary a lot from time to time? Is it completely random or is it scripted invasions that follows a certain time line?
Also seems like a lot of the friendly planets are agricultural or mixed economy this time, and I seem to remember more industrial planets from my earlier games. Do the different planet types have different fighting forces? So a solar system with large industrial planets have a decent military force, while the single agricultural world get's peasants with pitchforks to fend off the Klissans?
I'm liking this game a lot, but it's also still quite difficult to get started. I hoped to have picked up some more decent strategies to help me get started this time over, but it's still very hard. And now the Klissans have removed some of my best trading partners, and they're also blocking me from reaching large parts of the map cause my hyperdrive isn't really state of the art, and running through 2-3 enemy controlled zones to reach yet another invasion force isn't really that much fun :-p
(/end rant)
Anyways, I'm curious to hear how the Klissans and allies match up in your games, before you start to heavily intervene.
