That fleet will kill anything you might encounter in near future, and maybe even capture some 1 pop enemy system :D There will also be a few independent scouts for other directions and for replacing wounded scouts in hero fleet. 1st turn I attach hero (now disarmed) to starting scout, mess around till 1st fully armed scout finishes, then rearm hero, take hero +2-3 scouts and go adventuring. You have religious pinned law - might get some value out of it. scouting, for curiosities and for opportunistic agression on other (AI) empires. Again, need to adjust it to game speed, by calculating production.ДҐ) Having build 1st, underarmed, scout, I prefer spamming 4 more fully armed scouts, those are for killing quest pirates (btw you didnt complete trivial 1st quest by turn 50), for killing normal pirates, for guarding leechers, for. Speaking of laws, I prefer turn 1 science from scrap, and turn 2 (turn 4 on slow?) - cheaper fleets. The idea is to launch it on turn 3 (normal speed, ark refit into 3x production) with Military law (cheaper fleets). On the 1st turn lay down a scout (probes+engine) with 1 beam (it's cheaper) or without any guns. I prefer spamming ships from the start, my take on Vodyani is that it is rather agressive faction, bcs of decent scout ships, +1 speed and religious law. Essence farming is not really that important that early.Д¤) You have too few ships for my taste. But you won't have dust to do it ALL 1st turn. Also there's an option of refitting 1 leecher into 4x engine - it will give 16 movement for scouting. Scouts refit - replace collector module with engine. Note that your hero still has +2 engine while you have +3 engine aveliable from the start. Remove all defence and some guns to minimise the cost. At some point later I prefer adding or swapping into influence modules, to contest minor factions.ДЈ) 1st turn Hero refit - add 2 engines, no probes.

Try reloading a few times to figure out how to fit 1st turn redesigns into your starting dust stock. On turn 1 remove ALL modules and place 3x All Shall Serve (Production module) or 2x production + 1x science. Well, not in such situation anyway.Дў) You didnt redesign your starting ark. It added additional consumption, while offering little food production :D Net effect would be minus ~10 food with luxury boost.ДЎ) Do not build wonder. Other faction, other situation I would probably choose Transvine too, but not when I'm about to get into starvation quagmire.ДҐ) Ironically, one of the causes is you unlocking 3rd (Ash) planet on home system. Yes, transvine gives food thru happinnes, but it is easier to access by other means, e.g.

RedSang upgrade would give you + 60 food production, that would solve all your food problems outright. Unluckily for you, you didnt spawn with boost resource (which is choosen at random), but anyway you've found 5 of it somewhere, futhermore you could buy it from the marketplace, there is ~100 availableД¤) Idk at which point you recognized your food deficit, but it was questionable decision to choose Transvine as system upgrade resource, while having access to RedSang. Without the boost it's negative while replenishing manpower, positive otherwise. From your save I activated the boost, bought a few ships to waste manpower, and upgraded main sustem to 3rd population - it was still positive on food. It would cost you 4 superspuds per 10 turns and would drastically boost your outputs, food included. It will pass.ДЈ) You haven't activated population luxury boost. Your manpower reserves will in turn replenish themselves consuming quite a bit of your food production. 40 men for scouts, 100 for normal ships (like the one you bought), 220 for arks. Then it will replenish its crew from your manpower reserve. When you build or buy a ship (Ark included), it spawns with 0 crew. I'm not a Vodyani player, but I've heard that on slower speeds they indeed tend to die of starvation, because of. Your food problem comes from:ДЎ) Slow gamespeed setting.
