I've noticed that in theory massive fleets of missile CCs/BBs are very good, yet in the games I'm playing it seems like I never have enough ironium to mass produce them. Even if I do, I make one generation of ships; when those ships are obsolete 5-10 turns later, I'm left with not enough ironium to build new fleets.

Is it generally considered a good idea to save ironium for higher tech levels, as in not use missiles (except for SB's) until one has Doomsdays/Armageddons? Or possibly use remote mining to get more ironium? What if you're playing a race with OBRM?
