Some friends of mine want to play Twilight Imperium all day on New Year's Day. I have the first expansion, but haven't played much of it.
What combination of strategy cards are the best to use, and why?
I've actually wondered this too.
Initiative
Diplomacy II
Political
Logistics
Trade II
Warfare
Technology II
Imperial
Doesn't switching the trade card negate half of the cat race's racial power?

Shots fired!
I pretty much just use the first expansion cards.
Leadership:
Basically more actions to do for everyone.
Diplomacy II: it is actually usefull till mid game and then later game when there is full out war
Assembly (Political 2 I don't recall the correct name): less shitty version of the original and needed to pass the Speaker token.
Production: more stuff on the table more things to move and die and complete objectives.
Trade II: more money for everyone it kind of helps to encourage backstabbing, or long term alliances.
Warfare II: basically a flank speed and moral boost for a hex you control. It is awesome. And usefull unlike warfare.
Technology II: you get a tech, he gets a tech everyone tech up!
Imperial II or Burocracy: it is basically how you want to play. With full house (4 and 8 players) go with imperial II any other combination use Burocracy.
That is on top of my head.

Nah, every strategy card that dicks over a race sheet has a note on each rulebook

Basically space Jew Arabian Lions work the same with any trade card.
Space nerd jellyfish get OP they can get free tech when someone else takes Technology II.
Space turtles I don't recall, no one of my group likes playing with them.
