Re: Treaties
Unfortunately you can't often apply logic to the AI's diplomacy. The only thing that's predicatable about negotiating with the AI is the frustration it will cause.
In your case I would take most of the system with troops. Don't bomb any planets, just send in loads of troop transports. That way you'll get all their population and production facilities intact. Kerching!
Then, when they are down to just one or two small worlds, demand surrender. You'll get their remaining worlds and all their ships, units and tech as well. Kerchachaching!
Are you able to use tactical combat in this game or is it strategic only? The design and tactics of your troop transports will depend on that.
