Default Re: racial trait +20% and evasive armors

Yup, Stellar Manipulation. It is dirty cheap in Devnull, as you actually gain money by retrofitting, instead of having to pay extra. A Star Destroyer or two at the border, more if possible, and blast'em as they come within sight. Warp Openers and a riot run are always fun too, or simply Warp Closers: if they cannot reach you, they are dead. Or all of the above. And let's not forget about the Sentry Star Destroyer, with a handful of vessels protecting the wormholes, to take down enemy scouts. Risky, but *fun* if it works.

Of course, they are likely either protected against Stellar Manipulation, or already using the same things themselves. If not... I would go for it. You may be the worst tactician ever (I am), and Stellar Manipulation can still save the day.

Even more fun is gained by sending cloaked sunkillers into his very systems, with the main target being his home system. Then, if he isn't begging for his life after one turn, push the Big Red Button and all that'll be left of him are several rapidly expanding clouds of monatomic gas and several stray ships which can be hunted down and destroyed with ease.
