Good comments.. cheesy, but good despite kagetora's harsh attitude. I was working on a similar idea, but I try to plan everything arround a simultanious turn game, where this wont work. you end up adding an extra turn for every upgrade step you have to do, so it is only practical to do one or two upgrade steps (which in turn means a more expensive initial SB design, i was thinking of using stellar manipulation components to up the cost). the good thing is, you can emergency build the heck out of the first design, because even if your construction ships are stuck in slow build for the upgrade turns, it does not delay the construction time.

alright, its cheesy and abusive. no i dont do things like that in multiplayer, no i dont cheat all the time, yes i like a challenge. flame me with that planetary napalm, my speed built RWs give me enough surplus population that I dont have to care..
