Now a ringworld on each star of a trinary system, now that's something else again. Never did that.

I did that once; built all three simultaneously, too. I even had the foresight to turn the single asteroid field in that system into a huge planet (had to do that before finishing the ringworlds, obviously) to house the system-wide bonus facilities, plus some other specialized facilities (training centers, system shield, happiness facility, resource converter, etc.). I never did finish that game... Oh La La La, Mag-Knee-Fee-K Now if only you had, and could give all that to an AI. Then they would really give you a run for your money.
At least until they tried to build too many fighters and the game crashed with range check errors.
Ask me how often that happend to me. Go on. Ask.
