Snowtrooper Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 I juz wanted to find out, which civ is n00b-friendly in your opinion or which was your favourite civ when you were a n00b? For me, I was a huge supporter of the trade federation when I first started out. No prefab shelters = COOL! What's yours? TF - no prefab Republic - all rounder Empire - all rounder together with cool units because of movies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 I'd advise putting all the civs up, because some people think that other civs are good for beginners. i personally think its the Reps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 I say it's the wookiees. Because of the training campaign.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorranSec Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 Yeah, probably the Wookies, if only because most n00bs will play the training campaign and immediately become familiar with the Wooks. But on the other hand, some n00bs like the all-round approach of the Republic. They're considerably easy to use, especially because they're good at the primary units of the game (troopers). Soo... yeah. Put all the civs up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Vostok Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 I think TF even considering all the civs. Not only are no prefabs good but the Droideka is pretty easy to use and is a big favourite amongst n00bs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 doh, I voted TF, but I think Republic is the more powerful and more newb friendly...they are almost a cheat. I've never lost a game while playing as Rep. (except to others who were playing as Rep). It's just too easy to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simwiz2 Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 When I was a newbie my favorite civ was the Wookiees. It was mostly because of the stronger troopers and good air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryllith Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 I started out playing the TF simply because I wanted to use the destroyer droids. After that I simply started hitting random all the time. Personally I can see any civ as a newbie civ, simply based on what type of game a newbie wants to play.

Sin Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 The TF's carbon gathering problem balances out the prefab problem easily. Their economy works a little different in the beginning because of it, but that doesn't mean that they SHOULD have to build prefabs. All your resources have to go into gathering food in order to build carbon miners, and A LOT of carbon miners. The only advantage I see is that they don't have to worry about space or base set up as much as the rest. You might not even like that ability if you use prefabs as a defensive wall... I don't know why you would consider any of the civs in GB a noob civ. They all have their slightly different ins and outs. The choices given in the poll just happen to be the most intuitive civs, therefore easier to use when you first start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OOM-9(2) Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 Trade fed. I still use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 I picked Trade Fed. But they are bad too. Yes, the no Prefab r00lz. But They lose some on the Carbon gathering and the really crappy Air units Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
