Limit Planet Stealing

Ok, I am sure this has been covered already but I'll be damned if I can find the thread, now there is a limit to how many planets you can steal, is there a limit to how many can be stolen from you?
I mean, if a guys defence is built around some of his planets, (stupid I know but bare with me), what is stopping an allaince coming in and ten of them removing all his planets in 10 seconds and then stripping him bare?
Just a thought

I agree and that is why I think that the update if anything hampers your ability to recover from a planet's conqueoring. It makes it a bit harder to get ahead then before.

Yes - but only if you stupidly rely on your planets. A lot of newer players have complained to me about these planets - 'keep getting them stolen' - 'too expensive' etc. Well, my advice is - if it keeps getting stolen - learn from it!! You are obviously not yet strong enough to hold on to it - so stop wasting time and resources and concentrate on the main part of your account first.

You know people do not think it is fair that the big guys keep getting this or that like the Mother Ships Being so expensive at first, now any one can get one the first week with a few judicuious thefts of Naq.
I feel the changes are really here for the older guys anyway, I was not yet bored with the old way before the changes came in. But, I'm sure it takes events like this to keep many in the game, while the newer players really do need to learn to be patient and earn stuff like Mother Ships and Planets....
Sorry if I sound harsh.

My commander (who has enough covert to spy on them) told me that the big guns up there didn't even bother spending very little naq (if any) on their additional planet defense (most of them has 0 defense), they're counting on their main account to intimidate you. That's even less naquadah they need to spend to keep their planets.

The funny thing about the planets is that it doesn't matter how strong your account is... the Planet is defended opnly by it's own defence!... I pumped a quick Bill+ into a planets defence... and it was taken an hour later...
Taking a planet seems a little TOO easy IMHO...

I think he meant that you could only lose 1 planet a day

i knew thats what he meant... thats why i stated that as is.... you could have all your planets taken... but with the 1 conquer a day... you can only regain one a day... making it damned near impossible to rebuild...

Just ignore planets....Build main stuff up
my rank is fairly low because I raid, so people hunt me out
I just completly ignore my planets if I get one, I just tell someone in my alliance to take it if I get one, because it will be stolen by someone.

Good decision, methinks. If you need a goal, go and ascend, being an ascended makes life easier in the main server (and this is where I stop).

Same here, when I got my UP planet I told my commander to take it but they want their naq for something else at that time so I just abandon the pretty thing.
It sure is amusing imagining players playing 'pass the planet'
I thought the '1 attack per day' is already implemented?
According to this:

Haven't tried attacking people's planets... maybe when I've stopped hogging on my naq and stop caring about repair bills.
