This is interesting because from what I remember (not looking at it now) to get the achievement you had to use all of the cap ship slots. Is this not the case? From what I am reading it looks like it isn't. If not, I would imagine it would be a lot easier because you could "rush" with caps early and throw the AI off. I was playing rather defensively and keeping only a few planets to not stretch myself too thin but it was too difficult. It does appear that I need to keep this against 1

So I've been playing against the AI now for a few weeks as Vasari and decided to try and get the Go Big or Go Home Achievement. I went for Med difficulty against 2 AI's with locked teams and pirates inactive and it just doesn't seem to be working for me. Issues: The game is not meant to be played with just caps as they are expensive and take awhile to get rolling out. Resource flow is a problem. Mid game I have 7-8 caps out but it does not compare to the 2 cap and 20-30frigate
