Hi Shaun,

I used to do that tom but with your ships spread out, I need to go to a 
starbase
just to put em all together.

Not true. You can asign one shipt to be your lead vessel, and have all 
the other ships autopilot to it and once they get near to the lead ship 
you can reform the group into some sort of tactical formation. 
Generally, it is good to put the lead ship on impulse while the other 
ships are forming up on it. Once they are in sensor range but not docked 
you can then launch your invasion plan upon the enemy races.
Basically, instead of using a starbase as your focal point for regroup 
begin thinking of individual ships as the axis from which you launch 
your attack or counter attack.

problem being is that now my bases get hit first.

Right. That is because your fleet is probably close to your starbases. 
If you have your ships a few light years out the enemy ships will 
generally attempt to swarm attack your fleet.You might lose a ship in 
the initial invasion, but if you can get off to a good counter offensive 
the enemy will be chewed up before they ever get into range of your 
bases. At that point the bases should be able to finish off the 
remaining elements of the enemy strike group.
