[quote]Is there any reason for getting a cap ship yard so early? I usually start with a col. ship & two light frigs, jump to the nearest asteroid, then get the ship yard. While it's building, I colonize the asteroid (usually before the defenders are dead, since they can't damage it) and develop it. This lets me get some additional metal and crystal income going faster and lets you send your cap ship off to another planet bordering your HW.[/quote] Well, you're missing out on easy experi

One lone Battleship is usually enough to start off with.
