Building Capital Ships

I can't figure out to save my life how to build Capital Ships.

It should be quite basic, but I just can't figure it out.

I feel retarded.

Can anyone help?

Build a capital shipyard, then build capitals. :P Your first capital is free, but it usually requires the first fleet size upgrade because of the huge supply it takes up.

I wish this was emphasized more in the very first tutorial. IIRC, it just starts you out with a cap ship without explaining how you got it, or that the first one is free (although that nugget is in a loading screen tip for some reason).

First thing you do - Click your planet, click on logistics, build a cap ship yard
Second thing you do - que a cap ship

Proceed to do what you normally do.

Makes taking down tough neutral star systems a lot easier.
