Idea for a new building which could increase the starting XP of new-build ships over time, with the cap dependant on the level of the training academy.
A training academy would only train a single ship at a time, and increase its XP by 1 every 5 weeks (or whatever), Until its XP cap was reached. During this time the ship would be unable to move or take orders.
This would provide another facet to the game, providing difficult decisions such as "should I abort this ships training because I need it on the front line, or can I hold on for another 5 turns to give it some preliminary XP?"
Depending on balancing, the TA could either only be used on new-build ships, or any ships below its XP cap.
Even if the XP caps were low, eg 5,10,15 , it could still be an interesting new facet to the game.
