My CO2 race had several ringworlds of their own in other systems, so I made this system my zoo/ museum=-) : the ringworlds were exclusively defended by inferior alien ships & units taken from trades, crew insurrections and planetary invasions. I had oxygen races on one ringworld, hydrogen on another and methane on the third, although the atmos converters never had time to finish their jobs before I had to patch and lost the game=-(

I did something similar in a recent game; I built a sphereworld near the end, while at war with the Last 3 AI. The Terrans sent a message asking me to abandon some sector, so I responded with a demand for surrender. The little cowards accepted the demand!! So then I had 50 worlds worth of rioting Terrans to deal with. Well, rather than drop troops or build new colonies with happiness facilities I loaded up all the population, weapon platforms, mines and satellites & dumped them on the sphereworld. And then abandoned the old Terran colonies. The fastest way I've found to fill out cargo space and population on a sphereworld...
