In general: why colony ships are so slow? Personaly, I will certainly prefer warships to colonyship to found new colonies: typical colony ship EPM = 10, while destroyer's EPM = 2. Sure, I have to research destroyer first, but it's another question. So in mid game colonyships will be abbandoned completely.
I guess you did it to make colonisation phase a bit slower, but there can be another way to do it, without making colonisers useless. What do you think?
