Ahem the nation of Vector has, many times..found it best...for universal security to remove offensive stars.

My favorite use of a star destroyer is as a stop gap measure. Just park it at a system as a Last resort. You can use it ambush an opponent with an overwhelming fleet. It severe tactics, but it saved me in a game once.

I alwyas kind of figured it balanced out or something. Oleg seemed to be saying you always got three huge asteroid fields. I guess maybe when he did it once he got three huge and thought that was how it always worked or something.

Yeh, it may be just a fluke. Will try again.
