Default Re: refiting an existing ship

One of my enemies had a very dissimiliar dreadnought that was more than a 50% difference on cost, and I couldn't refit. As a solution, I created a design that was about 1/2 way between it's cost and the cost of my own dreadnought. I then did a refit to my "middle" cost ship, then immediately refit again to my design.
I favor dedicated "scrapyards" where I build 2-3 repair bases (with 4 repair bays each) so I can refit and completely repair a dozen or so ships in one turn, then send them back out to the fight.

Sounds hugely expensive, especially on a dreadnought.
