      Well, i am not too familiar with Stellaris, but has some experience with the Civilization and Imperium Galactica series. I usually end up supporting several empire financially - on the level, that if they would stop trading with me, their empire got such a massive income lost, that it would crumble within 10~15 rounds -, and still has enough resources, if i got attacked by a third party, buy a whole armada of the most, or near most advanced units.
      (Last time i had a Civ V. game, where my enemies barely reached the ability of making World War Infantries, when i created my first Giant Death Robot. And i already was a menace to any antagonistic nations with barely four Stealth Bomber...)
      In IG II i mostly go for spies and Diplomacy, so i end up myself in the situation of the friendly aliens, where my allies wipe off my enemies of the map...

Also as bizarre as it may sound what is considered a garden/ Giai world to a non deathworlder is a deathworld to the deathworlder. They cannot survive there lol.

Fortunately for the idiot in front of me, whose life with the stroke of a pen I could make hell, a secretary got up from a nearby room and explained to the idiot just what would happen to him should he manage to actually piss me off. The idiot apologized and I didn't send him straight to a federal jail for a rather uncomfortable lesson in why pissing off someone in power who is inclined to help is not a good idea.

There are no clever ideas, no interesting alien cultures or serious confrontation.
