Has anyone tried this? I think that If I encounted a battle station, I'd just run to the edge of the map and wait for the combat to end.
Build the bases and put them in a fleet with a formation like Spider or Turbine. Use the biggest guns you can get, including some with nothing but CSM's.
Trust me, they won't get away unless there are more than you can bLast in one or two turns.
I'm going to playtest a formation I call 'ring' to see how it works for static warp point or planet defenses as soon as possible.
Now, if only they can modify how fighters and satellites are grouped so you can split them into smaller units then group them into fleets and not all one clump.
