I really like battles right now and how they are evolving. I'm all in with the minor participation in them as we are the ruler and not a fleet commander. My only problem with all of this is that my great army of unstopable destruction has 6 ships in it... top. I rule half the galaxy, literally... and I have 6 ships in a fleet... doesn't feel right.
My idea is building fleets/squadrons instead of single ships. The design of the ships could stay the same, the animations the same, only more ships.
For example, the samller ships would build groups of, i don't know, let's say 6 ships of the design in the fleet screen. The medium/big would build 2 or 3. The biggest ones that are suppossed to be huge battleships would only creat one.
Having bigger fleets (in numbers) would give more realism to battles. Also, It could open the way to different commands applicable only to certain ships (eg, order 3+ squads of small ships to "shield" the bigger ones by flying around them and being primary targets oooor making the smaller ships to fly very close to a support ship and being partially protect by the shield of the bigger ship). This are in fact strategies that you could choose as an emperor to work without micromanaging what actually happens IN the battle.
