I got my copy Last Thursday and I have to say that this is easily the greatest 4X TBS game ever made, and it is a contender for the Greatest Game Ever title. The only weakness SEIV has is the AI, but after I installed TDM that seemed to go away.

I just have a few more n00b questions:

1) Is there any way to retrofit all ships of a given class at once? I upgrade my ships fairly often, and it's a pain to go down the fleet list and manually retrofit each ship.

2) If a battlestation has a Space Yard and some cargo locations, can it make it's own mines/fighters and store them in its own cargo bay?

3) How long does a normal game usually take? I'm in a mid-size galaxy with 9 AI players, and it feels like it's taking a long time (~15 hours so far).
