Hello everyone. I am planning to play my first game ever of Alpha Centauri, and I would like some advice on where to start. I have read there are some tutorial scenarios, are they worth playing? Will it be better to go straight into action in a random map? Keep in mind that I never played Civilization II (which I assume it's the most similar to Alpha Centauri), so I can't rely on previous knowledge. However, I will read the manual beforehand.
Another question: is there any benefit on playing vanilla first or I won't be missing anything if I start with Alien Crossfire directly? I have seen there are some flavour texts that pop up every now and then when playing Alien Crossfire... Do they reference any lore scenario from Alpha Centauri?
Thank you.
