Spoon, I don't think you are going to get much argument doing a retroseries in a turn based game is quite gamey. But the point everyone is trying to make is that that's against the AI. The argument could be made that anything you do against this AI is an unfair advantage, unless you let your cat play your turn for you. (Inside joke for forum oldtimers. )

But in a simultaneous turn game against other players, the retroseries becomes more expensive because you have to include in the cost of maintenance on your ship for all those turns while you do your thing.
