Default Opinions please!

The frickin' Eee won't leave one of my head honcho planets! I'm in a full partnership with them and they insist on camping a sizable fleet(1 carrier/7 support ships) on one of my important worlds. I have sizable fleet of my own there but I would like to use that to make an assault on another race in the next system. However I fear to remove my fleet incase the Eee decide to be ignorant and break their treaty...frickin little specks anyways...I have asked them several times to leave and they won't. I don't want to forcibly eject them sooooo....opinions?

Sounds like you have to beef up the planets defenses so it can deal with that Eee fleet on it's own if necessary. Fighters, WP's, bases, sats, whatever it takes.

have a current game where the Phong did the same thing to me. Playin w/full tech on in large galaxy (200 I think)... anyway, spent all the time isolating my little empire from all other races by closing all but 1 warp point into my sacred empire, when those little yellow buggers parked 8 ships directly over one of my worlds - wouldn't leave no matter what I asked - I offered to bribe em w/resources - no go. I offered to buy the ships w/resources - no go.

Had a complimenting large fleet sitting w/em - mainly due to all the Posts I've read on the sneaky little AI trick of parking and attacking - but didn't like the invasion of my privacy that little yellow fleet was causing. So I ran an intell project, captured a planet from an empire I was at war w/via puppet parties and traded the planet for all his ships - he accepted the trade - the planet was on the far side of the map and it obtained my goal of once again isolating my empire from all foreigners. Extreme but effective - no war, no mess.

Build ships, park them outside your territory and trade for the Eee fleet. Piecemeal if need be.
