[Slick]

Nice to see some of the interface improvements/differences from the old screenies. Not sure if this is new or I just didn't notice before but I like the way that the interface background changes with your empire colors.

Also noticed a lot of Starfury names.

In the ship statistics: "Salvage Value" , "Production (net)" ... neat. I'm wondering if that graphic just to the right of the "Crew" box has any functionality.

I'm also wondering how the mechanics work for placing planetary facilities and defenses with respect to how they will be placed during ground combat; if they can be changed, if the placement has any effect on how they function, etc. It's great that ground combat will be much more detailed.
