as you get deeper into formerly enemy territory.  Okay, that's a good

I'd like the result to be usable as a two player game.

"Your political leadership requires that the planet Voteria not be
left undefended"--okay, that's another one.  Similar is the "defending
convoys" that Edward mentioned.

The cost of FTL ships might be a lot higher than that of System

Anything else?
