Planet massing is just as pertinent a part of war, especially long term wars, as massing down someone's defense or AC'ing their spies. Therefore I feel it should be included in the military records of an account, and recieve a weighting in their MEP totals.
I'm not sure about the specifics, but possibly:
Planet defenses destroyed ###
What do other players think of this suggestion?

Re: Include planet massing in MEP
makes total sense to me that it should be applied to military records. Also if this was added perhaps fleets killed and fleets lost, also mothership damages

motherhood... em, mothership damages wont be added... thats been said multiple times...
however, a field for planet defenses lost/destroyed sounds like a nice thing...

Re: Include planet massing in MEP

Re: Include planet massing in MEP
Along those lines... should it be enabled that you can attempt to conquer a planet even when your planet slots are full/your mother ship just conquered a planet, only it's simply attacks against defenses/facilities?
Or rather, the 'conquer' selection is replaced by 'attack planet', and if you destroy all defenses AND you are otherwise able to acquire a new planet via conquest, then you get to conquer it too.
This would also allow you to slam into facilities.
But this would also make wars a potentially very ugly thing.

Re: Include planet massing in MEP
i think we should leave it as it is.. for if this is added then people will go and steal a planet and then start massing alots of other planets. which will prove endless.. so one guy with huge motherhsip can mass all planets of a alliance. so it should be left alone.

Re: Include planet massing in MEP
Definitely add "Planet Defense Facilities Destroyed" to the list. Whether or not you fold that count into the ME ranking is less important to me but I can see how/why many would like that added as well.

Then, no point in making it if it's already taken into account!
