Fascinating game Electrum. I thought I was toast about turn 25. I had diddly squat! Besides my home world, I had only one other breathable! (Not counting that one I lost in the far west)
So I bit the bullet and researched another colony tech very early. Never thought I'd get away with it, but I guess your economy was in nearly as bad a state as mine.
I managed to hold on with my redoubtable fighters till I could build and train a serious fleet and take the offensive.
Thanks for a fun game.
Asmala, move me on up to the big time. Don't worry, I'll be back on the bottom shortly.
