Prior to 2.2 I recall that claim cost depended on how far from your borders the planet was, *and* if you had any neighbouring claims--so if you tried to just claim your enemy's homeworld without also claiming the systems leading to it, it would cost a fortune. Claim those systems first and the cost was far more manageable. Does 2.2 not work the same way? Or is your 1000 cost including that reduction?
