I think I've managed to create a fleet so bad ass that it breaks the in game counters, See below my fleet strength is -43731 to the Altarans of 31697 yet my fleet didn't even take a hit.. Also you can see that theres not quite enough space for the beam weapon strength to fit properly.

The other thing i noticed is the faction/military power reset actually happens mutliple times first at 5000 then at when u get back up to 10000 (from 0) it does it again, then again at 15000.

Has anyone made a more bad ass fleet than that one below ? I'm curious how to go further
