Can you please consider reducing it to 5 seconds or so? 15 seconds is a long time... I can repair, train units, and still beat the timer after a raid. Also when people hit a hologram, they tend to attack again to get the naq. People are going to get upset to the point that they start sabbing asgards just because of the timer, lol.

What are Tabs, is that automated? Seems Ive heard alot of people using them (more than .5%), I assume this will stop that also?

i prefer to see a balance of no one skill can be higher than the other in covert and anti covert....if u have anti covert you should have a defence to match it

if so could it not be posible too add a system whereby you can enter a figure higher than 15 on the amount of ATs you use alowing you too calculate the ammount of ats you will use on 1 raid ?
with a limit of say 250 - 1000 ?
You never needed to click, I massed some fool yesterday, I just held the button down.

does PPT protect your other planets?

I assume so, actually, your question made me think... What happens if you send away your mothership before going on PPT? They get damaged per usual? So does that mean you can send out your mothership even when you're in PPT? If PPT also protects the planets you have, that means any planets that the mothership acquire during your PPT will be protected?

I would think you should not be able to go on ppt while your ship is away

I afraid to touch the defcon now, not sure if the lower levels also cost 3 turns? But, I will have a need of testing each to see what the new proper one for sleep mode will be.
Don't want Critical and 0 Naq all night.
If I understand it correctly.
Also if your afraid your going to be massed now a MS can be safe while out serching for planets, since it wont be home defending you.

I guess Tabs are not considered cheating since Forum has switched them back on IIRC.

The closest thing to tabs for IE....is have a dozen new windows open..I used to do that. All tabs are, are multiple windows in your browser, but in ONE window. Try firefox or my pref...NETSCAPE!!! try it, or don't. It is a much more efficent method of internet surfing. Heck, I can play chaos, Quantum, Main, and other games at the same time. It's not cheating, it's just which browser you use. ummm I really hate to say this. I'm a pretty nice guy.
But...
Learn about computers before you call internet browsers cheating tools. Common.
