FP hands down has the best bonuses. Swarms are okayish and Exterminators is meh. Assimilators atleast can sorta do diplomacy at first.

Difficulty from easiest to hardest (in my opinion) would put Assimilator > Exterminator > Purifier > Swarm.

Assimilator and to a lesser extent Exterminator (Only other machine empires though) can do actually do diplomacy so youre not constantly at war with everyone all the time. ♥♥♥♥ out of luck with Purifier and Swarm but atleast Purifier has the firerate to fall back on and maybe youre lucky and a United Nations AI spawns so you have -one- person that doesnt hate you for a couple months before your purging again. Lmao

Machine Empires have a leg up though because they don't suffer from unhappiness and can colonize any world. You can also use Robomodding to build specific workers for specific jobs (something you can't easily do with biological empires because you can't control their reproduction as easily, it's just a galaxy-wide on/off switch).

For me, Determined Exterminators are the easiest, hands-down, do their ability to blob at the start then build up. As all Machine civs can do.
