The Emotionless races have ALWAYS Jubilant population. You may want to consider this when the new patch is out and you start getting all those reports of your systems rioting because of battle losses.

Oh yeah [slaps his forehead], My race:
5000 points
Warrior Culture 120% Research
120% Attack
120% Defense
110% Reproduction (extremely cheap for the +10% effect IMO)
110% Maintenance
120% Mining
114% Refining or Organic Extraction (depends on what racial tech I choose)
50% Cunning (I always play with Intelligence turned off, also I reassign points from Cunning for all other races too)
50% Strength
Adv. Storage
1 Racial Tech (Any)

Sometimes I use points from resources to use Adv. Propulsion. Also, I usually make some minor changes to these settings each time I play (I like variety).

Btw. Religious Tech is great in combination with another Racial Tech (like organic).
