Now what was the cause of this? And I'm I the only one that believes half of million FR is a bit excessive?

For the record the increase in fleet size is entirely my doing. The reason I did it was because the PA team shortened the length of the rounds from 10 weeks to 7 week and I wanted people to still be able to have large fleets as I remember the glory days back when plays had value's in the hundreds of millions and millions and millions of ships. Where you would have battle reports with 10s of millions of ships and stuff like that.
There were some who objected when it happened but as of late I haven't seen many objections. Most have just adjusted and moved on as far as I can tell. From a psychological perspective having more ships seems to make people feel better about their fleets, even if in relative terms they still suck.
