| =Notes=
| |
| | |
| * Build an Eros starbase early on to pump out HISS-er ships. Every large cluster of planets should have one HISS starbase. Eros ships are 100mc each (ish) even if you outfit them with t5 engines (nice but not necessary).
| |
| * Some players build tons of small deep space freighters late in the game to fill up the build queue, then recycle them for priority build points. The Lizards can do one better - build Serpents with tech-1 engines and beams and use them to HISSS! until you want to recycle them.
| |
| * starbase-inna-can ships are extremely valuable for getting starbases up and running fast. Null-tech starbases can still pump out HISS ships, and you may not get the chance to make them later.
| |
| * The T-Rex is a midrange attack ship, and is extremely cheap for its armament. Don't treat it like a heavy warship - it's in fact the least powerful tech-10 ship in the game. (Nevertheless it is superior to Fascists/Crystals (Diamond Flame)/Privateer and Fed (Missouri) main warship if you have a Lizard crew on board)
| |
| * LCCs are awesome but they're heavy and they suck up fuel. Make lots, but be aware that scavenging for fuel in enemy territory is hard, particularly if you're gravid with troops.
| |
| * Lizard players can win alliances by offering to HISSSS! other players' planets - have them tow a Serpent with tech-1 engines and beams to the planet of their choice. Note that you can't give your ships to them - you must be in control of them in order to HISSSS!

| | |
| ==[[Alliances]]==
| |
| | |
| ===With the [[Feds|Solar Federation]]===
| |
| | |
| * Refitting of ships
| |
| * You can provide cloakers, which they can make pretty good use of (immune to Lokis)
| |
| * can HISS his planets
| |
| * [[Madonnzila Class Carrier|Madonzilla]] benefits highly from Fed ship bonus (extra bays)
| |
| * Economies: they have double taxes, you have double mining - trade-off

| | |
| ===With the [[Fascists]]===
| |
| | |
| ===With the [[Privateers]]===
| |
| | |
| ===With the [[Cyborg]]===
| |
| | |
| * HISSSS! their planets! The Borg need fighters for their deadly Biocides, and for those they need a TON of cash.
| |
| * An amazing strategy to try:
| |
| ** Put a cloaker ([[Reptile Class Destroyer|Reptile]], [[Lizard Class Cruiser|Lizard]], or [[Saurian Class Light Cruiser|Saurian]]) on an enemy planet where there is also in orbit a very strong enemy ship (say, a [[Virgo Class Battlestar|Colonial Virgo]]). Make sure the ship is cloaked.
| |
| ** Have the Cyborg player move a [[Firecloud Class Cruiser|Firecloud]] about 80 lightyears away from the planet - enough to reach in one turn.
| |
| ** When you are both ready, have your cloaker tow the enemy ship to the Firecloud.
| |
| ** The same turn, the Cyborg should [[Warp Chunnel|chunnel]] that Firecloud (and, by extension, the enemy ship) to one of his worlds, where he has a low-[[Ship ID|ID]] Biocide waiting, mission set to "Kill!".
| |
| ** When the enemy ship comes through the chunnel, its shields will be down. Because the Biocide has the lowest ship ID, it will attack the enemy ship first, easily destroying it.
| |
| ** If the friendly code of your cloaker is different from that of the Firecloud, you can stay around and do it again!
| |
| * Cool any hot planets they may have (above 50) using [[Eros Class Research Vessel|Eros Researchers]]. This increases not only the rate at which their colonists grow, but also increases the maximum colonist population. Essential when combined with assimilation.
| |
| * Borg colonists are deadly when given to [[Lizard Class Cruiser|LCC]]s. Capture enemy planets (and even starbases) with those clans via ground combat.

| ==[[Enemies]]==
| |
| | |
| ===The [[Feds|Solar Federation]]===
| |
| | |
| * Feds have a rough time getting minerals; hit their laden freighters.
| |
| * Their [[Nova Class Super-Dreadnought|Nova]] can easily take out two T-Rexes in a row. Be careful.
| |
| | |
| ===The [[The Empire of Birds|Empire of the Birds]]===
| |
| | |
| ===The [[Fascists]]===
| |
| | |
| ===The [[Privateers]]===
| |
| | |
| ===The [[Cyborg]]===
| |
| | |
| * Kill them early if you can! The Cyborg are at their strongest later in the game, while the Lizards are strongest earliest in the game. If you are playing as the Lizards and you come across a fledgling Cyborg player, don't hesitate to destroy them - you probably won't get another chance.
| |
| * Don't make the mistake of building only T-Rexes. A single Biocide well-stocked with fighters can destroy four, maybe five T-rexes depending on their torpedo tech. A Rex-Mad-Rex or Rex-Mad-Mad combo will usually do the trick. Annihilations are somewhat easier to destroy (as they are torp ships), but they can still destroy several of your ships, so be careful.
