My Empire is currently 15 colonies strong, settled in the southeastern corner of the map. The 2 Xeno types, Terrox and Red Zorga, have 4 and 6 worlds, respectively. Neither of them have captured any worlds whatsoever in the last 100 turns. I don't know where they are located but, given that i havent seen any alien ship yet, i assume there is some distance between us. Should i expand territory and claim and fortify as many worlds as possible, or stay in my corner until i mass a bigger fleet and better tech?

Expand aggressively. They'll hit critical mass and then expand quick. What's your diff?

If you have Steel Song as one of your factions, put their worlds at regions where you think Xenos are most likely to invade.
SSC worlds start with a defensive structure (Steel Fortress 1), so that will allow them to last a lot longer as a new colony in risky space then any other faction would.

This is good advice, I'll usually do this. Another tactic I like is colonizing a planet further out, usually a white star. Use with Steel Song and you can make a quick fortress system, it'll draw nearby xenos in and give you an early warning.

I have Cadar, Javat and Moklumnue. Maxed out my economical output with mines, so credits arenĀ“t a problem. Running low on EP, though.
