Ok, new question: Is there a limit to the number of fleets you can have?

The reason I ask is that I'm in a game now where I have between 30 & 35 fleets and a very wierd thing just happened. I assembled a fleet of about 35 ships at a training world and sent it on its way, but on the next turn all the ships had stopped after moving the expected distance but their "fleet" had disappeared. All the 35 ships were in the same sector awaiting orders. Then I had to send them back to my training world to become part of another trained fleet.

Anyone else ever see a fleet disappear from under its ships?

Well I've never had that problem with my game and i've run my fleets all the way through to GAMMA GAMMA GAMMA (Seriously I had a GGG fleet in training once) Of course I tend to #/name my actual combat fleets which is something you may want to try.

The AI doesn't name it's fleets 1st 2nd 3rd or name so you won't have the problems of having 5 alpha alpha whatever fleets floating about in space.


As far as have i had any fleets disapear out from under my ships, no but I have had a fleet of ships disapear which was wierd because I had no combat reports but all 15 ships just vanished from my side of the game.
