(I try to learn the game by playing on Nergal : there is no other way cause the wiki and tutorial are a little poor. Maybe also because English is not my native language).

Do I understand correctly that there is a max on starbases and so there is a max on ships (where a starbase is created by a colonyship).
If this is true:
- I can start all over again (glad it's a training server)
- There is definitely a written game manual necessary

As a side note : imho a written manual would attract more people to start

There is no limit on Colony worlds, however, there is a limit on Shipyards, which is 10. So in effect, it becomes much less benefitial to build more than 10 colony planets. I believe the cap on ships is 1000, so you'll need to max out Advanced Shipyards to be able to crank that many out.

And I do believe Lee is in the process of writing a much more thorough game manual/beginner's guide. There is a VERY good thread titled something like "this is embarrassing..." and throughout the thread it gives detailed instructions on how one should first start the game.
