Yeh, I was thinking he'd have to copy those tactics as having large defending fleets in all your systems isn't practical.
I guess if it's late in the game and you have the technology you could make a few systems with ring/sphere worlds and have large fleets in those.
I'm playing on the endless winner take all type of victory conditions so that tactic would be possible even tho it'd take hundreds of years I suppose.
Anyrate,it make for a fun game so far.
