Average difficulty is really strong
This game is awesome!! But it is very hard. On Average difficulty the AI
is very agressive and strong. In the previous match I chose the Mrrshan race, I had 2 planets
at the early game. Unfortunatelly, my closest neighbours were the Klackons...I survived 3 batlles and I could beat the klackon ships. But my economy has a bankrupt...and I couldn't finance my ships. The system sell and scrapped the ships automatically. And Klackon invaded my home planet...

This game is like chess. You can play as soon as you know how the pieces move, but it takes a long time to master.

Give it time, you'll get better.

If you want a tips, though...
-Creative: Don't bother trying to pick a tech when you can have them all. A great crutch for new players vs AIs.
-Try Silicoid: You get to straight ignore two aspects of the game (food and pollution), while you focus your attentions only on industry and science.
-Charistmatic: Make friends with all the races. They'll be less likely to attack you. I have a video showcasing the power of charistmatic.

It's because you used the mrrshan. They're kind of an average pre generated race. But custom races are much, much stronger than the pre generated ones.

Try something like repulsive, -ship defense and -ground combat to get to +20 pts. Then try creative, subterranean, unification or creative, subterranean, +1 research, +1 production. Or creative, democracy, +1 research, rich home world. If you're experienced enough to go non creative something like lithivore, democracy, +1 research is very strong.

I prefer to play creative. You only need a handful of systems really. Your planets will be stronger than the AI but focus on getting rich or ultra rich ones. Then once you terraform them get like hyper x capacitors and mega fluxors plus a modded up beam weapon and you will tear through the AI ships.

Bad! The game is lost or won in battle! Good ships are the way to victory!
