Hey, not sure if this has been brought up or is an issue for anyone else, but I feel like the "Request a Fleet" option is a bit oddly priced. Early in the colony game, when I might use it to attack a pirate base I don't have time to deal with myself, even small fleets are quite expensive.
However, once in late game where the millions of credits fly in and I have a bunch of good blueprints, I can order a max invasion force with 10+ fleets and dozens of capitals (Pandemoniums in my case, thanks Diable for the BP) for around a 1million.
So early they seem too expensive, late game they don't cost enough. Would there be a way to scale it differently, say, increase the cost per Force Point or something?

Also, if you time it right and set the force points correctly, you can create huge defense forces for yourself. If you see someone invading you with a force too big to handle, you request your own invasion fleet to wherever, set to gather at the invaded system, and time it so it spawns exactly when the enemy fleet arrives.
Boom, now there are 25 Pandemoniums waiting to bash in some Persean League face.
Not sure if this is intended or known and also not sure how you would prevent players from doing it.
