Twenty battleships to six systems seems okay, maybe a tad bit low depending on the composition of the systems and the development level of an empire, but two thousand cruisers and destroyers seems like an awfully skewed ratio, and 100,000 frigates is far too big of a number and ratio to make sense for such a small area.

I intend to do some more serious number-ing for this when I finish with Eteno systems and revamp the enormous military page, but a more believable ratio would be five to eight cruisers/destroyers to a battleship/carrier, and two to three gunboats/frigates/corvettes to a cruiser/destroyer, with a handful (less than five, for sure) of dreadnoughts (upsized battleships) if it's a particularly prosperous or powerful empire.
