Suppose you're an IT who has a decent sized empire but is trying to avoid war in order to develop a bit first (your gate network connects the whole empire, but has patches, as in you need to take round-about paths to get to some places). However, you're pretty sure that your neighbors are aggressive, and are expecting at least one of them to attack soon.
Is it a better idea to station a garrison close to the center of your empire or station a garrison around the perimeter? If you station the center, it can deploy anywhere within a turn or two, but it makes you seem weak as your ships are not really visible. If you station at the perimeter, it will present a strong front, but it might take half your forces three or four turns to get to the front.
What would you do?
