Oh my, that reminds me of another bad one from a recent game. I was in a PBW game where I was mopping up what was left of an empire after his homeworlds had been glassed or taken. I split my fleets up to speed the process since all that was left was smaller planets and single or small Groups of ships. I sent one of my sub fleets to take out a single enemy ship that was in range. When I got the next turn, his single ship had wiped out my fleet of 12-15 ships. What?!?!?! Then I realized what I had done. I had accidentally made a fleet that had only one ship with weapons on it, and the rest minesweepers and a transport. All my attack ships were in the other fleets. The one little enemy ship had an allegiance subverter, which took my one attack ship, which then proceeded to pick apart the reminder of my fleet.
