Hi back. First time I've been formally welcomed by a Toon. That much closer to the ultimate "having seen/heard/smelled/touched/thought/did it all! Thanks.

So, if I understand this correctly - if my ships are sitting on a warp and discovered is this nasty thing on the system star, the best hope I have is to collect them all into one fleet. That way, the fleet movement will be governed by the ship with the lowest ID and they all will be able to warp before the star destroyer acts if any ship in the fleet has a lower ID than the destroyer. Got it.

BTW - putting the SM ship in a fleet won't work because a SM order can not be issued to a fleet - unless there is some way to give an individual ship within a fleet an order that I am unaware of. Doesn't matter though because SM orders happen before ship movement - OHHH, that negates the idea above then - there is no way to escape a star destroyer because ship movement happens after SM. Is that right? Hmmm...

So how long is it that you need to stay addicted to this game before you REALLY understand it?! I think it's about three years for me now and here I am, asking questions, then answering them for myself, then there's Hmmm... There's always Hmmm...
