I recently forced myself to persist for a couple of tries with the Arceans, just to see if there was something I could do to make them work. I did eventually do pretty well, but it required some serious adjustments to my starting strategies. - I decided that the colony rush is really more about production than speed, and in this respect the Arceans are no worse than anyone else. Crank out those colony ships whether they're slow or not. A sensor bonus certainly helps so

I like creativity too - especially since some civs can even add to it later on. Ditto with luck - if you pick universalists you get +50%! (So my min damage is half my max damage instead of 0? Me likes!) Lately I almost always max out sensors lately - it's really cheap to do and I find it helps a lot during the colony rush and saves me a lot of moves. I never seem to have room left on my ships for sensors, but with a +4 bonus I don't really need them at all. I also like

If it helps.... Think of the numbers being the soldier #. the reason the smaller side can win is 1- they all landed relatively close while the other had to be spread out over the entire world, and 2- look at the milatary score and tech. I thought the reason the invaders get such a big advantage was air superiority - you've already destroyed their spacecraft so it's assumed that your invasion force can bomb and air strafe with little chance of reprisal.
