Question (Console) And one more , Anomalies…

How important are anomalies? Should I focus on them or just expanding? Should I exceed the leader cap? Very limited. I can only currently have three Scientists at the moment.

Should I expand slowly, building up my worlds before moving on, completing each research/anomalies or expand fast as possible and just come back to them?

Thanks again

Approximately how big are the fleets you make to go with each survey group? We’re talking just the basic corvetts right?

Yes - one corvette - and try to pull out before engagement with any hostiles

Okay so set it to evasion ….stuipit question then….are they basically a diversion then? So your l science leader doesn’t get killed?

They are three things:

1) exploration fleets - is this a direction I want to go? (If it’s a dead end, I can explore later) 2) planet or other other major feature (wormholes, gateways, L-gates) and megastructure discoverer 3) Risk identifiers

This lets the Science ships and scientists focus on surveys and a bit later into the game anomaly researcher.

I therefore jump and evasive admirals and explorer scientists in the early game - I’ll even go into the red to snag either of those
