Not really.
You are more stubborn than an old grumbler thrice your age.  
Do the math, its no contest. Every BSY built during the first 10 turns will set you back compared to the “fastest” model. You will have a more compact and secure empire, I’ll give you that. But it will be significantly smaller at turn 30 - 40.
If you don’t want to do the math, I’ll be happy to challenge you (or anyone else believing in the BSY model) to an empire building contest.
Umm... who said anything about a small or compact empire? The BSYs build more colony ships that spread out in the same way you were describing... |
