Re: Remote mining
In one PBW game, I had a system with one habitable planet and a ring of asteroids. I had stealthy remote miner battle-stations on almost every asteroid when I lost control of the system to another empire. Because the invader was not using any stealth sensors, it was nearly 20 to 30 turns before he found my mining operations! By then most of the remote miners were doing poorly due to reduced resource value.
Best defense for a remote miner base is stealth armor or cloaking.
