Previously, I believed that Star Swarm would stay nice and cozy in whatever systems they occupied.
I was wrong.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is not one, but three seperate queens that jumped into a hub system 1 jump from my capital that I'd installed a level 30 listening post in just to be sure. Turns out I was right in doing so. My fleet is completely incapable of penetrating their shields, though luckily I was just starting the construction of my second generation warships.
My question is, has anyone else ever seen the star swarm attack through a jump point? How do I make sure they don't find the two-jump (gated) alternative route to my home system?
I think it's kindof cool though, this way I don't have to SM a civil war to keep things interesting.
EDIT: 4th one just jumped in.
