Phases of the game - Game Opening

Hopefully you have a commander who communicates before the game launches or at game launch what he expects of his team and assignments.

OK, so you've got a silent commander. He just expects you to know where to go and what to do. Certainly each game is different, but in general Allegiance can be broken down into some basic phases where certain actions are going to help your team almost every time. Game Opening

This phase lasts from launch until about when the map is fully explored and the first set of cons have planted. Here, the most important thing is to fully explore the map.

Find every tech rock, every helium rock, and every aleph.
Set up probes initially to detect enemy miners and enemy cons.
If you have support, kill the enemy opening con or immediately start disrupting the enemy economy. Small problems you cause now will ripple into major problems later. Losing one miner load early can mean setting back a team's economy by 10 minutes or more.
Defend your initial cons.
As soon as the enemy reaches your miner sectors, start defending your own miners.
Pick up tech and bring it home.

We are going to cover these areas as they would pertain to you in game.
