Wow, I thought I was only person who remembered this game... Anywho, for the beginner here are a few things in mind...
1) There is a time limit on the game, take too long to win it and you'll automatically lose. So what I did was defeat the Synidate home planet (forgot the name sorry) with the fleet of Dragon warships :-D.
2) There is a glitch where sometimes when you save-quit-load your save game file, the computer changes the research you did and gives it to a rival business.
3) Another glitch, but this one is beneficial. Play the game long enough, and you'll soon realize that you're going to run out of staff. This is bad for you it you want to build up a massive space force and still remain on the cutting edge of technology and stay on top of mining. SO, what you do is this... create a warship with the minimum staff then transfer them back to free staff. So now you have a warship with no staff hehe but it still is a useable warship.
4) The nomad that invades you... beat the crap outta him.
That's all I remember for now, if any questions feel free to ask. I've beaten this games too many times to count, however for the first 50 times I didn't know how to avoid being suddently assassinated. To this day, I STILL dont know what triggers the sudden/random invasion of harmony and end game assassination.
