Re: Basic Statagy
To start with i make friends with everyone who'll accept a treaty.
I mine the warp points to 'my space' very heavily.
I research either atmospheric converter or stellar manipulation. Once I've got one or the other I go for a population drive either building ringworlds or converting ALL the planets in my space to the right atmosphere. By this stage I've got all the resources I need and a whole bunch of space to build research and intel facilities. I upgrade my fleet every time I get a leap in abilities (cloaking armour, engine extra moves go up, solar panels and solar sails). Until I started playing TDM mod I would get to a point where the AI could not win. With TDM I'm fairly secure but the AI keeps sweeping my minefields (Battleship size minesweepers!!! they can take out 150 mines in one turn and I can only have 100 mines in a square) and glassing my frontier planets.
