	Ships in G/E/M will be relatively slow from what you might imagine. They won't move around at a snail's pace, like a sumo compared to a flea, but you will need to ensure that you have enough ships spread out over your territory that you can respond quickly to threats. You will not be able to make an all-out attack without exposing yourself to serious repercussions - you'll be leaving yourself wide open for a counterattack. Similarly, you will have to consider carefully moving ships around to protect an area under attack - what if it's only a decoy from the real attack? Does your opponent have enough resources to attack two fronts simultaneously? What ships would best be used to cover your defense? Should you "accidentally" expose your all-important Command Ship to bait your opponent into a trap?		Ships in G/E/M will be relatively slow from what you might imagine.

			Furthermore, most ships will be incapable of firing on any ground targets EXCEPT projectors (ground-based anti-ship guns) - this is where ground warfare comes into play. You must protect your transports so that they can begin dropping your ground units behind enemy lines and thereby allow you to attack your enemy's economy and production.

			In G/E/M, you must wage war on two fronts - and losing on either of them could take you out of the game permanently.
