new wasp tactic based on scattering affect of rock crew
rock 19 workers to build as crew, if she hits planet she disperse crew to workers , if shes intecepted an destroyed she scatters crew to nearby planets

a 1 trit rock doesnt take but about 75 fuel to traverse the map at warp 6 an could be used to colonize this would bring in the the 1strn build of accelerator

trn 1 build accelerator every planet build 1 rock an send it to next unknown planet , if you find worm or natives next time send nest , all other planets send rock as you gain more planet send rock 1 trit low fuel realying on crew to scout an initial colonize , if you find native or worm all workers to converting natives an in 2 trns your ready to send a rock , from there its cascading growth with great long range potential , 1trit rock takes about 8 fuel to go 300lyr roughly,,, coarse this may change since its in testing phase

Rock exploration works fine, confirmed, especial cause sense all, but i use dunghills for this.

Dunno why you want to build so many accelerators.

@Ghostrider: You can just send the scout rocks at Warp9 you know... an Accelerator is expensive to be building right away and may stunt your growth to much... I remade a Horwasp testing Sector because of that reason just yesterday.

@Ghostrider,

> how do I get rocks at wp 9 ?

After you do the Build for the rock, the rock will appear in the Planet's "Orders" pane. There is a "Speed" drop-down there. Select the drop-down, then select "Warp 9", which appears as Orange.

Please remember that all Horwasp ships use "Quantum Drive 7" engines, so Warp 9 will consume quite a bit more fuel than Warp 6 or 7.
