Pfft. If someone thinks they can single-handedly take on an alliance of multiple nations- whom are already accustomed to fighting everyone- then they are fools. Besides the fact of everyone in the Stellar Dominion are no doubt wanting to kill the mutual enemies and then turn on each other, the others are all experienced and ready for attacks, ready to conquer. A Slaver Empire isn't named that for nothin', after all. 80 eggs a month? That's slow as hell when you consider that other nations might have cloning, drones, massive populations, etc.

Perhaps we have so many Battle Points per battle, but we have so many TOTAL, and we gain so many each 'turn', like each battle, and whatever doesn't die filters back in as Battlepoints. That way heavy losses of insignificance could have a bit of an impact, while even a single loss of a Dreadnought may be a terrible blow. That way it's not endless fighting, if it's just an even-matched back-and-forth.
