iScode…. excellent advise. I think I know what you mean when you say steal stock but could you clarify? Steal stock with spies or by attacks? Sorry for the 20 questions, I'm just trying to get a handle on it.
If you do that, you might want to use a dict. stealing stock in terms of landgrabs, dont ever use spies unless if they have <20 SPAL, or you'll just weaken your own defence. it's a lot harder these days when they can spend 3 turns to pull it back and put it up again, though i'm sure a lot of them don't do that, cuz turns is money.
with a dict, you also decrease the likelihood of bouncing ops and giving htem a headsup before you strike. you can even spend a few days checkout their entire tag, if you join another alliance for protection, that alliance will be responsible for killing you, you'd be much better joining LaF for protection, and using their site against them (that's if they havent banned you yet), otherwise if you do join an alliance, you'll still be able to use their site to log all your ops so you can browse through their countries at leisure.
