either you play market and attack or sit on a big research bonus and be a cash whore.

you can't really do both effectively unless you get up to a big size, but even then you will be outmatched by  other fams who can specify roles.

Quantum is best for research.
Wardancer probably best for attacking or a custom race.
Partax can be nice too, you can have fun with the opps but you lack droids meaning attacking portals is a nightmare (use cpff ftw!)

I played 1 round in MW with this race to test it for SDSS, i was in a bottom fam and had good fun fighting other small fams, but when it was coming to fight big fams it was another story...
These are the minimum ops u must have then u can adapt more or less science, more or less speed,more or less attack. Don't go under 50% income for a custom.
U can have TO but i would go CF/RCs

Quantam are good at SS if u want custom.

U will have to play market a lot to compensate ur poor income compared to a normal banker.

As gd fa of IC says attacker SS works much better, but u have to be like all day playing the market.
It works better because u can have 50% attack, 50% science, 100% speed, much more ops. And a CF will make 12gc for u, when iron will be 14-20gc (except day 3 and 4 when it's 10gc). And iron is the resource u have the more exchanges in market (maybe after food but u cant play on it or u eat it)
I would just go 75% MFs 25% RCs. (maybe some very high bonus oct and endo, not to look stupid if there is a market srike)

A player named Dangerous was very good at ss and fighting top fams alone. Problem he had was his size killing his morale, and nw due to his fleet was making buildings expensive and small targets unreachable.

Being SS doesnt mean being selfish. If u are, other fam members will consider u as an intruder in their core (and they will be right). As soon as possible expo an outpost, secure it and make it ur own core. Once it's secured offer few plts to ur fam members they will be happy to use ur outpost and won't be angry because u expoed all the good iron bonus plts.
Propose ur fleet on raids, don't start wars that will kill ur fam, work with other attackers.

I would say play banker SS only if u are in a small fam and do lot of attacking, otherwise other player may kill u off to have a better random for the fam
