Pretty much title. I always seems to struggle with early fleet, something that happened with me in othr 4x games (Civilization), but not in ES1. It always looks like there is too much improvements to build, and ship cost always just a little bit higher then i'd liked it to be. So, what is the best strategy?

1) Military techs should be always kept updated, no matter if you are on war or not.
2) Having 1 CP ships always good to fight pirates early on even with basic weapon modules.
3) Creating fleets require a lot of industry, so you can time it untill you get a good system with tons of hot planets (in a situation where you are not at war and not being pressured by major faction).
4) If you are at war with major faction, military is a high priority and creating fleets is required for survival. Other wise you will lose systems.
5) If you are Hissho/Vodyani/Craver military is your everything and you should always have a fleet ready to fight and a military tech prioritized.
