Ya, I tried this once. I did actually manage to get another race to trade me a planet. It got a little monotonous waiting on other races to discover me though.

The attack-wormhole order does not work either, but it does drain your supplies. This is the closest I got to a working warp engine, but it still didn't quite work.
