Who says you establish beachhead first? Often you first lay mines and clear mines (light sweepers hop off of overcloaker).

I sent small forces including some cloakers through a wormhole last game and was playing around deep in enemy territory for many years (including taking and holding smaller colonies for several turns).

If I had gotten a friend to set up a gate I could have had more fun.

Tell whatever stories you like about only SS, I know how much my forces cost and how much the enemy resources I diverted cost. We aren't talking pure cloak, just enough cloak to keep the rest unpredictable. For example they never knew when they chased my orbital checkers if my cloaked metamorph would suddenly gobble the chaser. Deep orbit checkers and scanning give valuable intel info. A few unpredictable minefields helps survival, otherwise he can chase at warp 10 without any risk or chance to get stopped.
