Build lots and lots of cheap ships. (house rules usually require you to fill the hulls beyond the hull size below's capacity).
So lots of escorts with only life support and crew compartments + bridge or dreadnoughts filled up to 810 with holds (or whatever is cheapest) will give you the maximum points for your resources. Mothball the ships as you build them and you win......
It's a very boring way to play though.
thanks for the tips. It does sound boring, I guess I'll just play it like conquest --> the enemy can't win by points if they are dead
