Re: Strategic Help required!
Congrats on the victory! Looks like you'll get four tech levels (Propulsion, CombatSupport, ShipConstruction, Cargo). I think you'll be able to make it.
And you didn't say you had fighters! They can be a valuable attack resource. Once you get your fleet home, retrofit the ES/FG to be a corvette-type ship, with Fighter Bays. If you can, have your planets building fighters while the fleet returns. Ferry the fighters to a staging area (best place would probably be a storm that blocks sensors). Make 'em into one big group (it seems to help with accuracy). Then use the fighters as your main disabling force, and re-retrofitted ES/FGs can close and capture. With a repair ship handy, you can repair the ES/FGs, and the fighters should Last several battles (depends on total number). Best part: no maintainance.
