 Its a Bitc# i agree I got through it by doing all you said above , Then i get my ship production cranking and set the rally point close to my star base. when my heavy ships are produced i set them ALL on red alert & free movement, then put them in assault wall formation. They will effectively guard your base while you keep cranking out the heaviest ships you can afford.
 Then i start stacking ships in assault wall formation red alert free movement again, Then number them 1-5 etc. Move them a little bit away from any gravity wells so warp travel is not impeded, All 1-5 ( Fleets not just one ship!)  in one spot so they arrive at one time. Then in rapid succession ( about a second apart) Target the fleet lurking near or in the enemy star base, The base ,ship yards research facility etc. If you do it fast enough all of your ships will arrive about the same time, And completely butcher any thing in the area!!
 Make sure you spend the resources so you can up grade your weapons ,engines, shields, sensors as they will really help your fleets survive,
 Don't leap before your are ready and good luck!!!! ( Don't let it get to you this one ticked me off for about 2 weeks)

A thing I've learned in A2 from other people doing it to me on accident-

Kill the enemy research bases first.  Suddenly they will be unable to build anything big.

This last one is in fluidic space, and no warp is permitted there.  Also, no planets- the only source of extra supplies is one cargo ship that comes through the transwarp gate regularly.  i've had massive amounts of weaponry - multiple starbases and more turrets that I've seen around any other base of ops in any other scenario.  The 8472 ships just keep coming, in massive waves that just grow bigger and bigger.  Let me put it this way:  I've built up defenses as ast and as powerfully as I can think up and the 8472 ships wittle them down like a piece of balsa wood and wipe me out every time with clockwork efficiency.  The key seems to be their weapon that incapacitates my fleet, and I have no idea how to defend against it, since it will leave a fleet and two bases defenseless.  I only have 20,000 metal and 20000 dilitium, so I can't just keep builing more and more, not that I have enough time to do that anyway.

Hey CK, Let me know when You online and I'll give you a few pointers with ST : AM2. I used to play that all the time myself.

It's been awhile though, But It seems that I was able to Mass Produce Defiant Class's to help Defend the base against the S8762 onslaught. I believe I used the Borg on that mission also to handle Refinery Situations. But It's been awhile. I mostly Played online with that one.
