Yeah I think so. So to be safe a 4.5 to 5 tril def would be safe.... for a while :D

and you only need what 10% to mass a planet?

15% I think, but could be wrong.

Surely no one would do 1mil fleets. Why they wouldnt just have an insane MS ATT instead?

because with ms att you can't hit planets

and it's 10% massing limit guys

To upgrade mothership fleets from 1 to 999999 will cost 4,999,994,999,990,000 Naquadah.


I don't think someone in their right mind would do that O_O

Did it change from this then?

Fleet/Planet Attacks
A minimum fleet strength of 15% of the planet defences is now needed to engage. Below that it is pure suicide, with no chance to succeed, and you cannot convince your pilots otherwise...
On a technical level, this also brings the cost of attacking closer to the cost of defences lost (although still favoring the attacker)

i think its 15% if they have planet defenses but 10% if ur attacking and they only have platforms.

I honestly don't think platforms make a difference.

Can anyone confirm?

ok, first i'll show you all the hierarchy of knowledge

admin
someone close to admin (i wouldn't bet on that though)
me
updates page
all other help pages

:P

and now back to serious
it's 10% right now no matter who or what says otherwise.
if you go under 10% you get this error that it's a suicide mission etc.
however only if your fleet power is above 10% of the PLANET def itself, PLATFORMS DO NOT COUNT INTO THIS

planet def 1 bil
platform 1 bil
fleet power 120 mil
attack goes through and your fleets get erased

planet def 1 bil
platform 0 bil
fleet power 50 mil
you get the error message
