A few "terrorist" strikes against a human opponent, maybe; but a large number against a human opponent is not going to be all that effective.
I beg to differ. I wiped out three entire empires and severely damaged a fourth, all of them quite sizable, in the space of three turns with 30 star destroyers and 7 warp openers. Yes, this was on PBW and all four of my targets were being actively played by human opponents. It would have been just two turns, but one of my star destroyers took the wrong route and didn't manage to get to its target on the first turn.

Edit: Of course, such large scale destruction can have some unwelcome side effects. Due to a bug in the game, star destruction occasionally picks a few extra stellar objects to remove apparently at random. The 30 star explosions I set off resulted in at least two one-way warp points, 5 of my planets just disappeared, and I've noticed one system that obviously used to be trinary now has only two stars in it. I'm sure more such things happened outside of my space where I just wouldn't notice.
