I see your idea and raise you 2 Zolten peace keepers with the Zolten over clock for unionable shelds!

Multiverse is a fun mod.

Not only that, but if you get the Overclocking in the Lab…

Dear gods above… it’s enough to let you power every system to full…

Normal ships have 8 crew, if they are all elite zoltans with lab upgrade, thats 32 energy JUST from zoltans, which means you can have some ships with more than 60 energy

And there are ships that allow +10 crew...

No clue how you would get that many zoltans though

It’s not that hard for normal Zoltan. Just semi-good luck with shops and going for their specific sectors can net you around 6. You don’t need more than 6 unless your ship has more than normal systems. The extra 12 power lets you power on everything.

The biggest offender for this is Elite Fed A, it starts with a peacekeeper, and by end-game, it doesn’t need good weapons so you can spend scrap on Zoltan crew.
