Well thats just it, due to the nature of such a fleet if you maintain it properly then it accelerates as long as you ensure it is never 100% full.

You start with a fleet that can invade every 4th turn, then every 3rd turn, every 2nd and then every turn.

But it doesn't have to stop there. You can use your now every turn fleet to produce more fleets and so on and so forth.

The real strength about this ability is that as long as you never let those freighters fill and you defend them well (jammer 50's are a good start) you can not only have 1 every turn fleet, but you can have many of them.

This leads to another IS only race - the OWW IS race that can colonise many planets.

IS is a race commonly overlooked ignoring the wonderous gadgets and abilities because of the increased weapon cost.

Just think... breeder fleets, jammer 50 nubs, speed trap mines.... never mind those early croby sharmour minigun ships.

and yeah... IS DO have the best skirmish frigates, beaten only by WM maybe.
