Fyron,
I was thinking about your idea of dedicated research stations and using scale mounts with them [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

This would let you stick a shield generator or some armor on the base for a little bit of protection. No worries about larger bases or master computers... Or I could make the station a bit bigger or something.

What about at higher levels of RL (or possibly bases) adding another scale mount/s to make all The RL a little smaller so you could fit a bit more into the research stations defence (or even scanners etc.) wise, without changing the hull size.
Other than that I do like the RL idea especialy since it means more flexability. i.e. if you get into an unexpected war you can mothball the RL stations and use the resources freed up to build up your navy and so on. All without scrapping and rebuilding facilities!
