Thanks for the help.

No problem man. Even at the behinning of the game, you can build better ships than the canned ships. You can build cheaper colony transports (Think mass production instead of ship speed and you can save a bundle on resources and time to construct and get more transports to colonize more planets 3x as fast).
How about survey ships to analyze those rocks floating around? I built a ship small in size and had 3x of the fastest engines you could research - it covered 25 to 30 spaces in one turn, and usually surveyed two to three rocks in any given turn, increasing my abilities each time.
Just think what you want to accomplish and build a specialized ship for it. A few posts back, you can see I built a ship to take on the Dread Lords - basically send them packing, though it wasn't designed to survive the actual battle. It sent the Dread Lords cruiser packing for over 2 years time though so I had little worry about them doing me harm.
Just think outside the box - and you will win.
