I've wondered this in the past but have been unable to find anyone with an answer. I also had a wee search in the forums but got bored sifting through the you took my dual i'm angry posts.
Does anyone know when duals were introduced to this game? Did they start as something you randomly achieved when creating a planet with 3 market turns or was it something else?
Doc.

Updates page wrote:Dual Planets on Black Market
The Black Market (linked off the 'market' tab) now has dual planets available. There is a maximum of 2 such planets that any one realm can acquire in a calander month - from any source. Ie - if you purchase one, and conquer one ... you are at your maximum for the month. The only exception is that if you LOSE a dual planet, your maximum for that month increases by one.
All counts reset to 2 at the beginning of the month, regardless of how many/when you may have lost previous dual planets.
The thought behind this update is that planets are taking a larger role in the game, duals are exceedingly rare, so over time this should infuse the game with more duals for the planet hunters out there...
(note - since this update comes mid month, jan/09 month has a limit of 1 dual)

They were available before this update. I am talking before they were available to buy. They had to come from somewhere.

yes of course.
So its either, black market or make a planet. Although from my 5 years of playing i haven't known anyone to make one on the market.
