I prefer specialty boosters if they're available. Otherwise I use scouts.

The fuel transport when playing an IS is wonderful. You'll need plenty of those as chaff for your pop-bombs later, anyways. They produce as much fuel as the SFX and are lots cheaper. You can produce them early, and regardless of whatever crappy engine you use on it it never goes out of style. Fact is, you want your fuel transports to be slow in battle so they linger on the battlefield longer and don't leave your freighters without chaff for as long. I make mine with the Quick Jump engine and keep them forever.

It's never even occurred to me to use the destroyer as a booster. How come nobody mentioned frigates as boosters? I've used those before. Cheap, and with 3 fuel tanks they hold lots of fuel. Good for boosting the bigger ships.

I'M NOT AN EXPERT AND I'M OFTEN PROVEN WRONG. TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN YOU READ MY POSTS.
Math? Confused

Ummm, sure! Nod

I do FREESTYLE math.
