The real question is will the defeated surrender or fight to the end. As this is a game, and not reality, I'd fight to the bitter end unless I had great respect for the eneym and wanted them to win (and most likely some one else to lose) more then I wanted them to lose. Fighting to the end is faster, and at least you can hope to have some negative impact on down your enemy. Surrendering is a fair amount of work for something that isn't much fun.

To introduce surrendering into a game, you'd have to give it rules such as 10x score and be at war for 5 or more turns. And then when the surrender is forced, the winner gets the password and changes it, and the loser can no longer play. There should probably be a few turn delay, to simulate the difficulty of intergrating an alien race. And, maybe some one could pay (have more points left over, or say 20 points to defenses) for 'never surrender' LRT. All of this would take a non-playing host or a neutral party to manage.
