The TEC and Vasari do have a defence against the strike craft. The TEC have Flak Burst and the Vasari have Jam Weapons. If they focus on those two abilities they should be able to take on carrier spam.

The advent have a numerical advantage when it comes to strike craft. They get 4 or so more than the other races per squad. Not counting the carrier cap which gets around 8 more than the other races.
I think what might have happened is that I clicked through the win screen when it popped up but then forgot about it.
I was playing a 5v5 match (teams weren't locked) against CPU opponents and I eventually got rid of all players that I didn't have a peace treaty with. However, the game didin't end and I was still recieving missions from the dead players. I also noticed that right before I eliminated the last two opposing players that their pictures already had the glass broken as if they were already dead. I'm using version 1.1.
I use almost pure laser mouse.
[quote who="Ron Lugge" reply="22" id="1949858"]Perhaps -- just perhaps -- this is a case of the English language not having the right words to state the appropriate distinctions; nonetheless, piracy is a form of theft, whatever you want to try and name it. You are taking something that does not belong to you, and the group that produced it is suffering as a result.[/quote] I can agree with this, the english language has enough nuances as it is. Personally I don't
I wouldn't say that the two are exactly the same, I would classify Piracy more along the lines of copying restricted files.
I usually go for the advent carrier first, the ability to have 18 bombers is the main reason even though it takes a while to build up. For the TEC I'm between the Sova and Marza both are great ships when used correctly. I don't have that much experience with the Vasari so I can't really pick.
I did a tactic like this at one point. I was losing so I decided to go for the superweapon and managed to build and fire it. I then scuttled one of the military labs (putting me at 7) and it wouldn't let me fire the cannon again. At that point I gave up because he was invading my remaining planets and I didn't have enough defences.
