Multiple Motherships

IS it possible to own more than 1 MS?
I have one and i'd like to get another simple to search for planets..
So i'd have a nicely equipped one by me at all times and send out a 'unarmed' one to search.

Where i had the 'buy a MS for $450M' button, I now have 'equip your MS'.
I don't know where I can buy another...

searching for planets must hav repercussions. having your ms not contribute in atks is a good enough sacrifice. otherwise itll be too easy

That sucks...
Doesn't really pay to send my MS out to find planets then...
I hear that there arent any left and I probably need to extra off/def my MS provides.

Is stealing the only way to get a good planet? How do I do that? Is it a 'raid'?

Once you purchase fleets, if you view the stat page of someone with a Planet you will see the option to 'Conquer planet'
You click that, select which planet you want to try and conquer, and whalla. :)

it was good when they came out yes. now there are none.

as for conquering planets, u hav to mass them and they arent weak defences anymore for most of them. if ure fleet is too small it is lost but if the atk is close then they get damaged/some lost (too lazy to chek help guide). and once conquered they LOSE ALLL DEFENCES.

Both of you mentioned 'fleets'...
Are you referring simply to my attack units and my single Mothership?

Lets say i find a low(er) level player with a planet...
What should I buy/equip/train in order to have a chance at conquering the planet?

under the upgrade sheild button thers a fleet hangar capacity. upggrade that to a sufficinet level then build death glider on that same page ( but the # of gliders appear in armory above strongest atk wep) u can sell fleets off at any time u want. be warned, u need a big fleet capacity to take down a planet as a fleet only adds 25k or so, ascended-56k or so to atk planets. the ms acts as a garage for fleets when conquering planets. it deploys the gliders and only gliders can atk the planet (the ms does nothing in that department).

i think if the atking fleet is 10x smaller than planet def, u lose all so make sure the fleet strenght is relatively close to the planet's def
