About to hit turn 15 in a game and I've been totally devastated by the Horwasps. Empire is tough race to learn but even with allies I don't stand a chance against the Horwasps in early game conflicts. I can appreciate a completely different type of race introduced to the game but the weight of how tough they are is unbelievable. I'm sure overtime I'll develop strategies against them but I'm just venting a little over how I just got steam rolled without much effort. Crazy!

Tried diplomacy?

It's true, if a wasp can overrun early they will have a big shot at the win. If they come up against serious resistance later, then they are going to need freinds in the late game to avoid a long slow death.

I was at too much of a disadvantage for diplomacy. Before I knew he was near me two ships took out my ships and a few planets. I'm not the only one getting steam rolled early in the game. Any race starting right next to the Horwasps is an easy grab for them.
