It's beginning to look like DBA-for-Full-Thrust instead.  Help out here,
you
educated blokes--"De Bellis Astralas"?	"Stellaris"?  Oddly enough, I
started out with Diplomacy, started adding multiple strength units, and
eventually said "Hm, that looks a lot like DBA..."

This discussion (this post and subsequent posts on this topic) is _not_
"public domain"--just in case it ever gets publishable.
Right now I'm thinking of Ship Squadrons from Transports +0, Recon +0,
DD
+2, Cruiser +3, BB +4, DN +5, CVL +3, CVA +4 (carriers can attack at
range).
Speeds from Recon 4 to BB, DN, CVA 1.
Land units will probably also be +1, + 2, +3 but I haven't done much
with
that.
I'm wondering if Scale should be 1/2 AU per space, or if it should just
be
abstracted.
Stacking allowed.  DD's will be able to support larger ships although it
will be expensive.
