Neutral ships leaving their system

[dominion]

I tried giving neutrals planets outside their system and they always send out ships to defend their newly received planets. Weird?

You wanna talk confusing? I had one game where one of those "anomalies" scooped up a mothballed ship and dumped it in a system that I had no warp connections to! It was stuck sitting there in the middle of nowhere until the Cryslonites came along and blew it up.

I once had a killer StarBase at a strategic WP (I don't use mines aginst the AI) go 'Bye-Bye' across the map and into a black hole system. At least it mercifully ended 3 turns later....

I had a game where one of those anomolies took one of my construction base and sent it across the galaxy. Wouldn't be that big of a deal except that this construction base was almost finished building a baseship that took almost two years to build! Thats annoying.
