Ship building
Just a little strategy discussion.
I enjoy making System Ship Cutters. (System ships are basically homeland defense, never leave the system they were built in, and also have more room because they don't need to worry about a stardrive.)
I usually call them Bees, because they are intended to buzz around and harrass the enemy. Since they're so small, I can quickly order Beex5 or even Beex10 at a time. While they're small, they're good for newly colonized (or conquered) territory so that the system can at LEAST have SOME defense almost immediately.
