There are basically two vastly different approaches to playing Eclipse: nice and naughty.
In nice mode, Eclipse falls back on its Euro mechanisms and you build your empire peacefully with the occasional skirmish.
In naughty mode, opponents can't wait to dig into each other's flesh and territories. Explosions, treachery, and exploitation abound.
I personally prefer the naughty experience, as it releases Eclipse's war potential and makes for a much more exciting game. Also, when a noob joins the group, it is delicious to watch his transformation from a timid goody-two-shoes to a ruthless warlord. It is truly precious.

You know most Ameritrash games do this much better right? :P
