Firstly,
Yes, crr65536, it might be possible to produce lots of two-Arm frigates without significantly detracting from normal production, after you hit wpns 24. I would certainly say that setting a number of capital ships as the single victory condition would be a bad idea. However, I never intended it to be the single condition--capital ships are just one contributor. Although, once you have weapons 24 you'd probably be well on your way to meeting the other conditions as well, as it would take around 300k resources with cheap weapons to reach (unless you're tech trading). Anyway, the idea is that capital ships would just be one condition. You'd have to reach at least two others to win.

Roberto, may I ask why you don't like the idea of chaff? In the very first post you said they'd be allowed. Why the change of mind? Although the game's targeting system is somewhat silly, I can also understand the idea of chaff from a realistic perspective. If you're fighting a battle with thousands of ships, you probably would throw a lot out there to be shot first. Since missiles and other weapons don't pass "over" targets in reality, it's conceivable that the little ships would be kind of like cannon fodder to take all the damage, stuck in the crossfire.

Yeah, bread too.
