Also, if you have no Warp Points leading back to your territory and the AI cannot see you in a cloak / storm, can you still conduct Intel operations toward the AI and vice versa???
I can answer this one. No.
If you send a cloaked ship into enemy territory and then close off the warp points behind it. While you are cloaked (or in a storm) you "lose contact" with the other race and cannot communicate have a treaty or perform intelligence acts against them or vice-versa.
You can however see there ships and colonies in whatever system your cloaked ship is in. Kind of weird actually. Once you decloak you get a "First Contact" message and to top it off, it's like they don't even remember who you are anymore.

Go to a "sensor obscuring" storm (not one that would damage ships), decloak, and build in the storm; bases, fighters, etc. Then attack from out of nowhere...
I know SY's worked in storms in SEIII. (That used to be one of my favorite strategies) but I haven't tried it in SEIV so I don't know for sure.
