What agressive scanning? Okay, you're trying to be sneaky. That's going to slow your attack down. Yes, it'll slow my reaction down, too.

That third year is where I jumped to the same place as I expected you to go. If I was wrong, I lose another planet and try again.

And your fleet of cloaked metas is, ship-for-ship, *highly* ineffective in combat, compared to a dedicated warship.

You have to use a lot of slots, which gives my cruisers a very strong advantage.

Plus, when they catch you, which *doesn't* require aggressive scanning, it'll be on a world with, yes, a good starbase.

Which'll hurt your fleet quite a bit, combined with my dedicated-warship cruisers.

Plus, I've almost certainly been engaging in minelaying by now, so your freedom of motion in my space is at least partially limited.

If you split your fleet, I lose more worlds at first, but can group to catch you.

Yes, it's difficult, but it's no easier for you.
Two years of full-empire production to take out a ten-year cloaked metamorph fleet? Perfectly plausible, combined with the other advantages I have being on the defense, especially when you factor in that I've been most likely researching for those ten years where you were building... which means I probably have BBs or am very close. And BBs will destroy metas, hands down.
