You usually want to win by gaining 4 planets. Going for 3 of the same make you vulnerable as soon as you get the second token (since the token come back to the middle). Going for 5 is more expensive.

In technology, you usually want to focus on one specific path. After the third level, it start to be really good. The transfer 3 cards is great, especially early since you will be able to steal 9 cards across the whole game. The +20 silver (so used twice) can resolve your problem of silver for the game.
* Taking the leadership badge {{zenithLeaderSilver}} with the diplomacy action gives you no planet moves, so it generally is only done if you need resources or want to draw more cards because you have a bad hand. One of the most common mistakes new players make is overvaluing the leadership badge.
 
 
At 2 players, especially if you lack of silver or if you are behind in cards played, as soon as the leader token is on play, you should take it back immediately by using Diplomacy. The mobilise 2 cards look the best one early on, followed by the +1 Zenithium.
