From my experience addition to already Saar Space Dock (able them to retreat) is a nice ADD-ON,cause last night i play with them. You still need to have some ships with space docks but they aren't vulnerable that much now cause they can RETREAT.

I was thinking that the OPs suggestions were a bit... OP. The nerfed suggestions feel more in tune with the original game.
