easier ways to win when at war

[dogscoff]

I like the blockade / invade / surrender approach. I _never_ fire on planets from orbit (I'm just too nice)

The trick with AIs is to work out their weaknesses - In my 1plyr game I've just conquered the Terran homeworld system with just 5 ships, bcause they use nothing but cap missiles and fightrs w/ rocket pods. I'm way bhind in tech and resources but I cleared up with dedicated point defence ships, troop ships, fighters and satllites. (I recently took out an entire fleet using only a frigate carrying 4 satellites)

I'll ask them to surrender now, and start grabbing their tech by crew insurrection.
