Re: What To Do With a Dead Star?
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">The Cruiser Hull with space yard will hold 5 engines and nothing else -- it's all I ever use that ship size for anyway. Your solar panels would make it hold 4 engines. I usually put 5 on and leave it at that. It can return to resupply once it's done building that base. I usually turn on emergency build, so I have a year to waste for the resupply and travel time.

If I wanted it to accompany my fleet, then I'd probably use the battle ship hull - so it could hold max engines, solar sail, and not slow the fleet down.

Thanks everyone for your help, much appreciated. I guess I'll just use it as a base :-)
