Re: Now how come I can never get a start like this in a real game?

Holy Mackerel! Talk about a perfect start for roleplaying an isolationist race! Wait -- are those good mineral planets? There must be a fly in the ointment somewhere.

Not Zen or anything, but "The Prince" by Machiavelli is also great Evil Emperor strategy guide, and also short.

"Desert Rats" is also the name of a Shrapnel game. It kept flashing on and off, on and off, in the banner ad. After a while it took over my brain and forced me to post it on your topic.
