Well not sure whether you mean 300b power or 300b defences. I suspect you mean the latter which would be madness. Anyway, i'll cover both to my knowledge.

300b power you would need min 45b fleet power.

300b defences would be 900,000,000,000,000,000 power therefore requiring a fleet power of 135,000,000,000,000,000.

Re: Taking planets

When you are talking about destroyed are you talking about the defences rather than the fleets?

The defences will only be totally destroyed if your fleet power is higher, so any fleet power between 15% of the defences and the total defence would just damage the defences.

300,000,000,001 is the power you are looking for. Anything under that and your fleets get destroyed in varying quantities.

i mean the fleets, the defences of a planet will be destroyed if the power of the fleets is under, i get that it wont be taken, but i was wondering what power it was where the fleets wont all be destroyed but will only be damaged

The fleets will all be destroyed under 15% I believe. Therefore anything above 45b would not destroy all your fleets but would damage them, unless some get destroyed i'm not sure. I haven't taken a planet for a long time but I believe this is correct.

Re: Taking planets

To engage a planet you need 15% of it's raw def in fleet power. To not get insta-destroyed you need 10% of raw + plat def.

To take a planet in 1 hit you just need more fleet power then they have defence power.
The trade broker reports trade from Surtr to *Teesdale_ of 100,000,000 Naq for 33,000,000,000,000 Naq is complete.

Ah yes of course, the insta-destroy is platform related.
