Re: State of the game: experience reports (long)
It is of great advantage to build storage facilties.
I always try to have storage 5 times my normal production. Eg if I have 200.000 minerals I try to have at least 1 Mio. storage capacity in mineral.
So I can hold my fleet in peace times at a low level (maybe only 75% of the possible) and in wartimes, my mothballed constructing stations are activated and can build a lot more ships than I could do without storage.
This is an valuable advantage if you fight against empires which are bigger than yours, because you can field an equal fleet/troop size. (at least temporary until your reserves are used)
