In case anyone is stuck on level 12 "One Hundred", here is my solution.
When you first start off, you are within range of 3 asteroids. What I didn't know earlier is that you can ration or even select a single seedling to send off. In order to do that, you left-click and hold on the asteroid, dragging slowly away until you see the desired number.
Send 1 seedling to each asteroid for reconnaissance. They'll die a glorious death. You'll see the number of enemy seedlings on each rock. Example: 40, 20 and 10. Start with the asteroid with the lowest number of enemy seedlings, and send double that amount. Once you conquer the rock, LEAVE THE SEEDLINGS THERE FOR DEFENSE. On your next invasion attempt, the enemy seedlings might attack that other asteroid in return.
The AI might also bring a small number of reinforcements when you attack, so make sure that your invading force is double the initial amount. This whittles down the enemy's large asteroid numbers to an acceptable amount.
There is a friendly asteroid with seedling reinforcements. It is usually positioned southwest of your starting location, but is only accessible when you are 2-3 asteroids in.
Asteroids that were colonized will have a Dyson tree. Asteroids with the defense tree are the AI's starting location. Save those for last. At this point, it should be much easier for you.
I hope this helped in case you were looking for advice on this level.
