I have read many, many, many messages saying that the TF was the worst civ. Is this really tru ? Personnaly, I find the destroyer droids quite powerfull...
:confused:

No, the Trade Fed doesn't suck. It is pretty darn powerful.

:D

T1 and T2, the TF come out of the gate with the most quickly mobilized harassment force ever, because they save ~5000 carbon because they don't have to construct Prefabs. However, when T3 rolls around and they'll be wanting to blow tons of carbon on lots of command centers and mechs, THAT'S when their carbon collection penalty bites them in the rear, because that's when they should be booming, and can't as well because they need carbon. On extremely high nerf maps, the TF can win in like ~10-15 minutes of speedy trooper rushing. They can do well on T4 due to massively powerful HDDs and highly upgraded mech units. Provided they have the carbon to do it. So when booming and probably most of T2, you should probably have practically 30% of all your workers on food, (or more) and have like 40% on Carbon, and like 5-7 devided between your ore and nova, depending on what units you'll want. But hella carbon definitely.

Don't know where you heard that, they are pretty powerful.
