[Space/Spaceships] TL9 nomad fleet - playable? - Page 2

Greetings, all!

There are many examples of such autonomous, self-sufficient fleet-civilizations - the Homeworld fleet, the Quarian Flotilla of Mass Effect, the (not exactly self-sufficient) human fleet of Battlestar Galactica, the Nomads of Infinity, and likely many others I haven't mentioned. How would you go about:

GMing it? All characters officers and/or project leaders? All characters from a team dedicated to one type of task? Ars Magica-style?
Building the fleet? What spaceships numbers (aside from #1) are essential in your opinion? What would minimal the fleet size/budget be? What would the interesting one be? Which systems would you prefer to keep on a flagship/mothership (if any), which would you prefer to have distributed throughout the fleet?
Picking TL nuances? Which FTL drives are more fun? Which technologies would you limit?

Thanks in advance!
