How to properly humilate FE
1) Build starbase in system with archeological site. Ignore nearby Xenophobe FE
2) Get demand to remove starbase, ignore it and continue the dig.
2a) Bonus point if site in question gpopives reference to other sistem near FE - build starbase there too to dig newly created site."Endless expance" works perfectly. Duble the dig - double the insult.
3) Get war declared on you
4) Wait for FE fleet to leave, after that park your ships on their planets.
5) Start raiding - take the most unique thing they have - their nerve stapled slaves!
6) Finish digging.
7) Make peace after proper exhaustion, ignore FE fleet.
8) Remove starbase.
End result - zero fleet on fleet combat, zero occupied planets. Just 100+ pop disapeared somewhere, FE capital planets have ruined buildings and very unhappy pops without slaves. Looks like they have to Awaken, get up and take care about their needs - all by themselves. And they still have fleet to do so.
