							do a forum search for swarm bonus, I'm not really sure on that anymore, especially know the sir e changed it after    the tinyman scam     ok, lol, just kidding.  but really, he changed how it affects attack and defense.

							I think gold members can do it (I'm one and I don't even know, lol. Never used that confounding experience calculator, it's too confusing.) but Sir Emi had it posted in the old forum....he should post the new one somewhere.

							It was great, now it's horrible. If it was still really good, we wouldn't be telling you about it, lol. That and everyone's power would be WAY lower.

							Hmm, so the bigger the hull, the more ships needed? 'Cause 23 takes about 35k.
  100... Woot! *fireworks* *splosions*

							Wow, either I'm just dumb, or I heard incorrectly the first time, but I always thought it was the otherway around, the smaller the hull is the, the larger the number before the swarm bonus maxed out.....

							Think he thoughed 1k hull fleet ship worth 1k credits on hull would be 6 space. That would indeed be close to the 100k ships swarm bonus

							1 space ships can't have defence because it requires power, and both a special and a powercore would require a minimum of 2 space sense they both require at least 1 space.

							last round, it was possible to design a 1 space ship with a couple k or so hp, and then watch it's HP jump into the mill's each, easy, making it a very good boarder, but that has been changed, where HP will be MUCH lower (the 1 space ship would have equivalent of old 16 space ship in swarm bonus)
  but ya, you need a minimum of at LEAST 2 space to do anything with it other then adding an armour or marine pod, but with 0 hp 0 defense, marine pod would just mean even more waste of money.
