1. a mobile base
2. than after that is built you may build the mobile base up to either a BS or BATS (that is the pre-requisitte for a bats or BS)
3. after the Bats is built then you can go from that to a SB
Is the Moble base lost when a Bats or BS is made & is the BS or Bats lost when a SB is made?
Monitors provide Supply, Research, & PP. Do they provide a SB or Bats?
I am not sure I understand this question...please resend.

Yes Asguard the mobile is lost when it upgrades so does the BATS or the BS when you upgrade it to a starbase. but you subtract from the total cost each previous base that was built.

The bridge of the Seltorion BCH Prometheus:
energy transmission received from an area of space unexplored by the sentinals of the hive.....investigate.
the large seltorian cruiser begin to send command and control signals to the massive robot that sits silent and menacing in the deep freeze of space. This machine made on the machine worlds of the Hive, acts as a guardian to the hives interests. the thought caste of the hive overlords of the single nexus of the hive consciosness use these massive juggernaughts as thier 'god machines' and ultimate warships.
In orbit around a cold dark meteor pitted moon the one known at "Titanicus" activates, and turns and slowly begins to move towards an unknowing area of space, an area that the protector caste of the hive sees as a potential threat.

Palli,
With the 1.5 rules, you need 2 command tokens to build a battleship. Since it takes two turns to buld a BB, do you have to spend 2 tokens over two turns to build it or just the initial turn?

hi asguard, you pay the 2 command tokens on the turn 2nd turn in one payement, the bb takes two turns the first turn you pay 1/2 of the production then on turn 2 you pay the 2nd half and the 2 CT's

Uh...thought it was 2 command tokens on each turn, total of 4 for BB.

Yes and no, the COW rules have not been updated yet to reflect the BB % of 5% of the total ships and are not inclusive of the 10% of 201+ vessels. so my answer is correct under the current version that asguard is using.
thanks.

Turn 9 battles this friday:
Update: there are two battles to be fought to resolve turn 9, both of them major one of them involves the Romulans versus the Lyrans and the other is Federation vs. Tholians.
The Romulans attacked the Lyran Confederation of the clans in strength in two systems. the Lyrus System (lvl4) and the Gortha System (lvl5) the Gortha system has falen into Romulan control and the main elements of the Romulan southern fleet has taken up residence here.
the other attack on the lyrus system has met with strong Lyran resistance:
The second romulan task froce undera commodre consists of the folloiwng vessels:
the Novahawk Senator

The War eagle Exidion
The Lyran fleet is as follows:

2 CW
The Romulans have decided to withdraw from this contest, the Lyrans will receive VP's and thier Admiral a marginal Victory.
I will post points later:
the battle between the federation and Tholians is scheduled to be fought tomorrow Firday:
the Tholians have attacked the federation Cygnus prime system (lvl 5) wth thier second fleet the federation 1st fleet has responded, the federation has not as yet promoted an Admiral fo rthis fleet it is under the command of a commodre (any squadron of 4 ships assumes a commodore a non leveled npc without any abilites or skills, just a title)
