I was just wondering if anybody else had used this technique, build outpost ship, fly outpost ship to neighbors system, proceed to take over all of his outposts with your outpost ship. This is only really useful in the first day or two of a server after that destroyers are going to be available and outposts should have protection. But that first day or two you can really slow down a close by neighbor. Maybe frustrating them into giving up ( inser evil laugh ) and freeing up some room for you!
