I have found that most games I open with one of the following.1. Academy with or without an additional Mine
2. Research Lab + Trade Station + 2 Mines
3. Research Lab + 4 Mines
There are also some niche cases for other openings
4. 2 Research Labs
This is almost exclusively used by the Bescods (Mad Androids)
5. Planetary Institute + 2 Mines
This is almost exclusively used by the Terrans when used and that is only occasionally.
I don't know what the standard opening for the Ivits (Swarm) is.
Which factions do you find you use the various openings with? I want to see if we can come up with statistically preferable openings for each faction. I know it won't be perfect, especially since the layout has so many variables, but it should be a fun thought experiment.
