how many fighters do u consider a fleet... because 10 or 20 wont do squat on any decent fleet or defense(i have around 700 light fighters and i use them basically as bait...i use my 600 battle ships to win wars
)...get small cargo ships and send them to pick up unprotected resources...
ps...make sure u get espionage technology and espionage probes to probe people before you attack anyone!
