Is it possible to build multiple SGSes and put them on hold in the same system all in queues 1 turn from completion? I was thinking of doing this in my AI game so I can scrap the SGS, open warp point to attack, close warp point behind me, and unhold another SSG so its ready by next turn. Does this strategic use of SGSes make sense?

This is a common tactic on PBW. Not the most reputable thing to do, but it does work.


Never thought of this. The only concern I would have is that storing multiple unfinished facilities would put a damper on making other important things. This would be hard to do if you have a small but well established empire (it is possible to have a small empire and have developed the sytem gravitational Sheild Facility - at least in a single player game). I guess if you need the ship yard, you can waste all the resources and scrap the unfinished facility. I also find that I usually need all my facility spots filled with useful and active facilites (until way later in the game and then it is not so imperative that I build rescource, intel and research facilities - and this all depends on how well the game is going for my empire). Besides these little things that need to be considered, I think I will expolre this idea. It sounds promising too me! :}
