Default Re: Learning the Rhythm

Use at least 2 fleets. That way, one fleet can stay on-duty for defense, while the other can move to a shipyard for refiting.
When upgrading ships, don't refit your ships each time you research new tech. Wait until you can upgrade your ship's components a few levels, not just one level. If you refit with each new weapon development, your fleets will always be away from your borders and your enemys.

As for keeping track of a ships tech level, when I upgrade ships I put a 'MK II' behind the ships name, and raise the number with each upgrade.

Hope this helps.
