Yeah, leave The Legion.
Actually, just remember that infrastructure is gold. Also remember that trades are extremely important, and getting the best STANDARD resources is better than getting 12 bonus resources.

jjpulse91, almost every 1k infra, there's what people call an "infra jump." At these jumps, people save money to "jump" them, because the daily bills per point of infra skyrockets. It becomes more manageable once you get out of the jump. That's why you save, buy to 1100 infra to escape the higher bills, then just continue on your merry way. You'll want to save more for 2k infra, 3k infra, 4k infra, 5k infra, and 8k infra.
