Freezing your population for flight time strikes me as something a race mostly living in space would never do, plus they'd prolly continue to work in their factories during flight aswell.
Retooling my already large enough shipyard will cost ~58k of both duranium and neutronium and take about half a year. I dunno how many ressources I've spent to get my shipyard to that size though. The mothership costs round about
Since I knew I'd go for a large ship doctrine I created a large starting system for my race, although I didn't set any ressources. I got somewhat lucky, although all major ressource depots have questionable accessibility. With the surrounding systems I've so far surveyed the only limit in my ressources is the speed I can mine them at, not their availability. I haven't stoped building automed mines at my capital for the last 50 years or so

105k duraniumOn top of that 150m litres of fuel, the maintance supplies, ressources and installations for cargo and the troop costs. About 50% of the duranium and neutronium costs come from the armour. I don't really feel like calculating the raw ressource materials and adding them up though. I'm just glad I don't need to send food along with the troops XD
62k neutronium
1500 corbomite
360 boromite
7500 marcassium
4000 vendarite
720 sorium
2500 uridium
45k gallicite

- does it have moons and asteroid belts orbiting it?If you count the 50k ton bases as moons and the fleet as asteroids, yes XD
