Blow up enemy ships instead. You get a bunch of RU for every ship you blew up if you win a battle, so if you need RU badly you can just run around killing people and recycling their ships.

Personal favourite resource collection technique: flying circles round Mycon Podships until they kill themselves.  ;D

Earthling/VUX works great too! just fly into VUX space and start blowing up the ships with an Earthling...
I prefer Spathi/VUX. Less chance of losing a ship because of bad luck (the Cruiser has absolutely zero chances of survival if the Intruder gets close, while an Eluder can at least run away quickly). Of course, accidents can happen to Eluders as well, like the time Fwiffo got fried by an Avenger that managed to swoop past a planet and get stuck to Fwiffo's Eluder in the space of a second. Ouch. At least he died without suffering too long.

If you really want to play SC2, quit your job immediately

Spathi vs UrQuan works pretty well too.  Just stay out of range of the main guns, and BUTT missile anything that moves.
