Re: Keeping your distance (II)
Speaking of mobility: In the original SEIV, you could put emergency propulsion components on bases. You couldn't MoveTo, but you could Download/Upload (which caused a move automatically). This was great fun, allowing you to make DeathStars, and with incredible range. (BWAAHAAHAHAHA!) They were difficult to use for attack, since you could only get them to move to a sector that already contained one of your units. But it was a bLast to suddenly move one of them through a dozen systems to provide resupply support for a fleet far from home. And they were genuinely useful as medical or transport vessels.
Alas, I believe those days are permanently over. Am I right, that you can't even mod that in anymore?
