Making fleets less valuable is possible without losing the wargame aspect of PA. Add more ways of combat, like:
- covert ops: already implemented in PA, make covert ops more powerful
- new covert op "incite uprising", makes some % of population unsusable for engineering
- ground combat: transporters which unload troops on an enemy planet[/indent]
- troops stay on planet and do damage each tick to constructions
- transporters have a chance of sneaking past the enemy's fleet
- geometry: add strategic chokepoints
- galaxies form a map
- you may colonize (a limited number of) planets
- fleets have a limited range
- or alternatively, something like a virtual planet for each galaxy, where you can place fleets, and target planets in that galaxy with lower eta
