on blocading, how exactly does that work out? i send a ship or fleet to orbit a poor little undefended planet and the game asks if i want to attack. if i say no, then the move is canceled. if i say yes, then the overzealous captains (stragic combat only..) procede to bomb the unsuspecting residents into oblivion. how do you just orbit without attacking? how do I make ships use harsh words instead of planetary napalm?
I seek peaceful co-existance, but I am having a hard time starving out my neighbours to persuade them to my ways of thinking since my fleet captains get all happy slaughtering the women and children
