Killing guardian with 5 destroyers

[muxec]

You can kill guardian of orion with 5 small ships. Equip'em with stasis field. At the begiining of the battle rush them all to the guardian. One of five survives and locks guardian in stasis field. Now hold the "D" key to skip 50 turns. The guardian will surrender then, now orion is free.

That takes more time then the emg mirv merc strat with 2 cruisers and 2 frigates

But less money. The only things you need to research are stasis field and cargopods.
