Re: Mobile Planetary Defence Platforms:

I have a comment on them. I did the math (big on that with this game) and worked out, that it would cost about 1250T in hangers, to store the fleets to take a planet with 500k defenses. So, if you have 3 platforms with say 150k each, then you can make any planet you take, impossible to be re-possessed. Not to mention the amount of Naq needed to build that number of fleets, to even attempt it.

you're so wrong, 500k defenses would cost you only 60 tril in hangars to be able to take that planet

not to mention that there are fleet powers of way over 300 bil floating around, so unless you build a def of 4-5 tril don't have any illusion of keeping that planet if someone really wanted to take it.

Re: Mobile Planetary Defence Platforms:

Hi, I've read through most everything about defense platforms, after having searched... got some more to go, but that's a lot of reading...

i suppose if you don't like this post enough, i just won't get an answer, but anyway:
I have 3 defense platforms...

if one of them gets shot out of the sky,

do I have to repurchase the platform, (i think that was 100 bil naq),

or just rebuild the defenses on the platform... thanks. 8)

once purchased they are like MS and never go away.

All 3 of mine are at 0 now and I still have them.

Re: Mobile Planetary Defence Platforms:

You have actually purchased the platforms correct? You have to purchase them for a flat fee before upgrading them.

you need to enter the number of defense facilities you want to purchase and then hit the update button. you enter the number in the box next to "increase by".

i cannot see anything wrong in that screenshot :?
