I have heard alot of cool talk about how you can make custom fleets and assign ships to specific functions like escort, long range combat, etc. However, it stands to reason that you will loose ships in combat, causing holes in your perfect design.

Will there be a easy way to replace those ships? Stardrive for example had a amazing button on the fleet itself that let you replace any lost ships in the fleet, you would click the requisition button and then the game would search for any available ships that weren't in fleets and tell them to join the fleet. If there are no ships available it would queue them up at available shipyards.

Will there be a similar, easy system to replenish your fleet? or will you just have to manually build the ships and sent em to reinforce? Even allowing a fleet to be a rally point would really help.
