I have always gone the 11 construction ship route for ringworlds anyway... Be sure to hold the production on the plate and cable bases when they are one turn from completion so that you dont have to pay maintainence on all those bases while the control is completed.

I don't remember the Last time I built a sphereworld, but according to my calculations, you could build a sphereworld in two turns.

All it requires is 11 construction ships, plus the application of $5,000,000. (Divided among each resource).

Build 11, 3000/3000/3000 resource bases, then use a $5M set of retroseries to rush build the sphereworld.

Building a sphereworld via the methods below will cost you only $1,800,000 in construction costs.
(40,000 resources per turn)
(40% the price)
(125x less resource storage required)

I remeber reading that in a post from March time frame. Cannot remember which post it was. But some one listed out the step by step way of doing it very quickly
