I play a collectivist/materialist empire. Low rate birth + prod robot for populate at the beginning. High adaptative for colonize everything. Total war with collectivism for invade primitives = expand fast.
Beginning: free pop for science and energy. Slace and robot for food/mineral.
End : slaves for mineral and synthetics for science and energy.
No suppression for faction or only before/during a hard war. Soldiers everywhere.
The game deal very badly with slave/robot in same time, but deal worse with AI empire soooo that work. But you can really have a better empire with some others ethos.
Lot of bug (same rights for robot = i cannot slave robot .... And slave all robot again = a huge mess in empire with half slave robot and slave slave robot). But it is ok if you dont check/micro everythink.
Build lot of soldiers. Everywhere. Lot of.
And i go often talk to the traders for buy energy.
