While I like the 'keep hem bottled up then let them out' idea for a lot of other settings, for that mod that I will probably never produce I would need the buggers to stay put until someone takes action to get them out. And even then I'd like to have it possible to avoid them, mostly.

Since fleets will explore, I guess that means no fleets for this AI. As inconvenient as that sounds, it should be okay, as each of their ships will approximate SE IV godhood in every way that can be done. This AI/empire/specialized-racial-tech combination is not meant to be beaten, just avoided. Here There Be Dragons.

Even if Colony Ships are the only ships that don't explore this little idea is more full-bodied than it was before, as they can at least fill out their home system now, and are still intimidating even if they use only Fighters and Drones.
