Well, that's enough nitpicking.
That's alright-- and it's entirely possible that the Sagella are about to kick my butt with their temporal ships, too. :-)

If you do have a small planet and wish to upgrade it's defenses, as you say, you can't upgrade the WP's so you have to replace them.

Anyway, my point was that you shouldn't build a bunch of the same type of WP on a planet, because you can only jettison them all at once in v1.67. Creating lots of different Versions (even different names with the same components, ie, swp1a & swp1b) lets you work around that.

PS: It looks like some people are using RCS for Version management. CVS...?
