My guys just created Unobtanium. They bought 2 from a planet with no Matter Synths on it and no fleets had been scrapped there that could have given it some. Not that I'm complaining, I'll take my free resources, thanks
It definitely gives a minor resource advantage to those people able to build a large fleet of Merchantmen/Bulkfreighters, but probably not enough to win a war.
I noticed Oldry created himself a little backup planet in the middle of nowhere. My arc just flew near it which is how I managed to see it. I'm going to send over 35 Subspacers to take the planet. I probably won't need that many, but since it'll take a long time to get there (about a month), I want to make sure I definitely take it upon arrival. It'll be a fairly useless planet, but since we're at war with him anyway, I may as well snag it
Kai, you might want to send a fleet to intercept that arc Oldry's sending away. A couple of Subspacers set to Piracy sent to it's destination should be enough to get it for yourself
