| Oct 21, 2019 at 15:56 | comment | added | Harper - Reinstate Monica | Adopt a dying cultural philosophy, start controversy, ally with a dying TV network, and whip the people up into a frenzy. Break up old trade agreements, threaten to economically destroy allies, etc. | |

| Oct 21, 2019 at 15:05 | comment | added | Kevin McKenzie | What is the goal? No humans, and nothing else matters? No humans but the same climate? Humans as a slave race? Do the aliens have to operate in secret, or is shock and awe appropriate? | |

| Oct 21, 2019 at 10:25 | comment | added | Shikkou | I would recommend playing (or just somehow studying Starcraft and Starcraft 2). The races are exactly how you describe, you have Protoss which are very tech advanced, but limited in numbers. On the other extreme you have Zerg which is basically a hive mind, and the numbers available are extreme, but very weak on their own. And you have the Terrans (future humans) which are somewhere in the middle. It would maybe help making a case study on this. | |

| Oct 21, 2019 at 8:49 | comment | added | komodosp | Not sure what the dilemma is here - you say they are "technologically advanced" so you're limited only by your imagination... making this question a sort of request for ideas... | |
| Oct 21, 2019 at 8:34 | comment | added | ChatterOne | How do the interstellar motors that they have actually work? Do they create small connections between two different parts of the universe? If that's the case, you can pretty much displace those all over the planet, suck away the people and be done. | |

| Oct 18, 2019 at 13:33 | comment | added | Richard Smith | See my answer to a different question here:worldbuilding.stackexchange.com/questions/158239/… Not everything is relevant, but TLDR: Fleeing into another solar system if you do something bad to your planet is quite stupid (if you can build an interstellar ship, you can also build arcologies and O'Neill cylinders much more easily), our biosphere would be worthless to them, and they would have no problem annihilating us. | |
