Increasing ur Daily income in anyway will increase ur bank size
Bank Capacity: 75% of Natural Income x 48 x 2 (ie 1.5 days of natural income)

I would say the cheapest way is planets to a point..
Use ur planets as a bank aswell.. Average sized planets allow for 2.5 trillion to be stored with no banking fees ;)

You'd be foolish to take that advice.
Planet taken, or defence massed = easy loss of naq.

The only safest way to use a planet as a bank is if that planet was on MPDSD forever.

I cnt c y someone would wana Mass a planet.. Average sizes usually rnt very productive.. only gain is war exp.. but u would use alot of turns nd loose alot of fleets taking it down.. however if ur in war then it wouldnt be advisable..

true... but who would be willing to bother massing away 150,000,000,000 planet defense power on a weak-bonused planet, just to remove that amount of naq? (especially if there's a few covert planets in there... they make planet spying a hell of a lot of work...)

Well it depends on your play style, if hes pretty laid back and not warring planet defenses are a viable option, if hes actively farming live accounts or drawing attention to himself, its prolly not a good idea.

different options for different styles of play.

another way is to buy untrained mercs.. they cannot be lost in anyway if im not mistaken.. however, u do loose a lil bit of Naq as the buying price is higher than the selling.. nd its quite a small amount that can be stored.. u would need 100 million of mercs in order to store only 150 billion Naq.. :-k
