You can really destroy reunion if you learn the best way to go about winning it. i can beat it in about 2 hours. I have a weird obsession with this game...every year or so i play it and refine my strategy for beating it lol. i set the taxes to oppressing right at the start then with my first bit of cash i buy the second level builder commander then i buy 4 hospitals, a vehicle plant, a stadium, 4 food resources, and 36 residential buildings ( yes 36 ). while keeping my power levels above 50% of course, which i think takes 2-3 nuclear generators. during this i set my taxes to very difficult, which becomes necessary after building the residential buildings or your colony will stop growing. This is all before i even get a researcher or anything else. This can give you about 10k credits every day. Now i buy the second level researcher and the first level pilot. I research satellites and buy 3 of them. I then launch one at the moon and then at zeus. I send my researcher to study electronics so he can research colony center when it becomes available. I put a mine on the moon. The moon is important cuz it uses the wind power plants. but doesnt require tons of medical plants and hospitals to maintain a large population. so build a colony on the moon first. Just as a side note i haven't built any mines or derricks at this point. on the moon you build a builder plant and a vehicle plant, a stadium, a leisure center, a church, a park, a university, 4 hospitals, 4 food resources, and 36 residential buildings. While keeping power levels above 50% with wind power, which takes about 8 or so wind power plants. then move on to zeus's moon penelope and and do the same thing and then onto amnesty 2 moon mir and repeat except you need to double the number of hospitals and build as many medicine plants so 8 of each. with all that youll be making anywhere from 20-30k credits a day. now start building mines on your home planet and putting miner droids in them. then move onto mir and build mines and a spaceport repeat on penelope then repeat on the moon. sometime in the middle of building the mines you should visit jade the last date possible is 2928-5-9-12 i always wait till the last moment to visit jade and get the communicator. once you get the transport ships buy ehm and start transporting all the resources to your home planet. You'll be making tons of cash by this point. as the money becomes available buy all the best commanders and you also need to build 80-100 derricks (yes i'm serious) all on your home planet. This takes a ton of nuclear generators as well but its necessary to make enough detoxin. sometimes around this point i buy another 36 buildings on the moon and on the main planet with another 4 hospitals and 4 food resources to go along with them. but you also have to drop your taxes to difficult and maybe even high for your population to grow any more, So there are trade offs. Again youll be making plenty of cash at this point so start building a constant stream of hunters. i normally get around 30-50 before the first attack. once the jaanosians are destroyed build 2 more colonies on there planets kepler and russel. Russel is an amazing planet for energon. you dont need to make them money producers just build all the happy making structures like the stadium, university and leisure center and then set there taxes to oppressive and they will grow slowly and wont bug you too much with there needs. build mines on them of course and get miner droids in those mines. You can get battle tanks before you even get twin laser guns if your quick enough. With this start you should have no problems crushing this game if you follow it closely and make sure you get all the good technology later on, just keep transporting resources and keep a constant stream of units producing. You quickly see that the real limit to how many units you can produce is how long it takes twin laser guns to build lol. By the end you can easily have 50 hunters 50 fighers 20 destroyers 10 cruisers and 50 missile tanks, Which is way more than enough to win the game. Ive left a lot of little details out like how exactly to get battle tanks and aircraft and the radio and all that stuff...but its covered elsewhere so get that info where its already posted
