Really, Cause that would be really cool. But if you don't mind me asking. How do you know this? Are you a beta tester?

Yes, I'm a beta tester.

A resupply ship can be made very large.

So, just to clarify (and to make sure I wasn't talking out of my ass in my previous post):

*Does* a resupply ship, in fact, require a larger-than-average percentage of its space be devoted to cargo holds (or whatever component carries fuel/supplies)? Or put another way, do capital ships get a larger percentage of their space devoted to weapons/defenses than resupply vessels?

It's best to have a lot of cargo and docking bays or it will take awhile to refuel a fleet. Same with Capital ships you can design it with less weapons, but don't expect to be very effective with them.
