Well, I just got it in time. I scrambled to study ships and PPB after that...as you can see, I got to LC with PPB 2's before they had to rush off to war.
When I missed that turn, the dumb AI moved all my fighters away from the warp holes I need to guard. In the south, it just so happens "Weed Boy" came through with 17 ships right after they got back in place but were out of fuel. So, he took a few losses but made it through the hole. Talk about scrambling! These days, I keep about 6 ships down there and he sends 3 or 4 ships through every turn. Needless to say, I'm getting a well-trained fleet down there. Since he lost so many ships, he bomards me with treaty offers every 2 turns. Usually something about needing to "share the light"...
