** With later patches having added the ability to choose one's starting era, certain starts, such as the Eriadu Authority from Eras 3-6 and Greater Maldrood in Era 7, have you starting out with a single planet and a handful of heroes while surrounded by much more powerful neighbors. Conquering the galaxy from that position, especially on Admiral difficulty with Cruel AI on, is a popular challenge run.

You now have to build the Eclipse SSD independently of Palpatine.

* DemonicSpiders: All varieties of Super Star Destroyer. Every single one has an absolutely ridiculous amount of hitpoints and firepower as well as large fighter complements. The Eclipse and Sovereign classes really take the cake though; in addition to the above they also have one-hit-kill superlasers and gravity well generators to prevent the enemy from retreating into hyperspace. Palpatine, who has an Eclipse class, is easier to defeat since he's also a ground unit (granted, he has his abilities from the regular game, but he's not invincible).

Their only real weakness are their small starting territory (limiting the amount of forces you can start conquest with), lack of an equivalent unit to a Super Star Destroyer (something they share with the New Republic in most eras), and no buildable defenses (like ground-to-space Hypervelocity Guns or Ion Cannons, or ground-based Turbolaser towers or base shields).

Its only weaknesses are a lack of splash damage on its otherwise-ridiculous cannon, meaning it can be overwhelmed by [[WeHaveReserves large numbers of infantry]], and a bug that gives it abysmal accuracy against build point turrets.

In addition to an ungodly amount of heavy weapon batteries, both ships carry a superlaser capable of one-shotting most ships, making them virtually unkillable in the hands of a semi-decent player. It's also very easy for players to jump in a dreadnought, superlaser an enemy ship, retreat, and repeat the process until the enemy fleet is gone.
