i dont know if this was suggested but i`ll have a go anyway!
in most cause u wud not have ur mothership always orbiting ur home planet..it in othercases wud be also the odd time be obiting planets under ur control! so why not when u attack some 1 wit planets theres the chance that u may have an incounter wit his mothership..depending what planet u hit..it goes by chance! the chance that his mothership is at the time orbiting that certain planet!
mothership against mothership!

Like a decoy? That's an excellent idea! It would help in reducing your chances of getting attacked "successfuly". But that's assuming that the attacker can't distinguish a fake target from a real target [much like a finding a coin hidden under one of three cups].

I think this idea is great. But need a bit of work. But nice. :-D

well.. but it'll make stealing planets even harder to near impossible.

since it'll take 24 hours for the attacker to attack again, the defender would have 24 hours to upgrade the planet defense.

Other than annoying, it can also lead to war before the planets are taken, making it harder for the lower people to steal planets since they would get massed more easily, and unable to build up their mothership enough to get the planet...

also,,, repeatedly attacking ONE planet is annoying...

also... if the attacker's mothership is stronger... it would be a problem. IF the attacker's mothership is 4x stronger than the defender's mothership the defender's mothership would die. It's unfair for the poor defenders who might have a stronger defense on their planet to have their mothership destroyed.

it wud help..im sick of when i take a planet some punk things he can take it back..my mothership has 14billion power on it and wud scare some of them away from taking it back..and once again i said its by chance that the planet u attack has the defenders mothership orbiting it..and so if the defenses are wipped out..it does make it harder to take planets that have the mothership at the time orbiting them..thats the challenge

Ah - so what you are saying is you want this update so that it is easy for you to take a planet off somebody - but possibly make it difficult for them to take it back!

Isn't that a bit selfish?

And not forgetting you might just as easily run into someone else's mothership when you're off thieving planets.

I wouldn't mind something like this idea, but there would need to be some modifier to the fleet power (perhaps only against motherships) cos otherwise I'm pretty sure the mothership would win out every time (give or take). I don't have exact numbers but when I shell out on improving my mothership stats I think the power of the fleets doesn't compare to the weapons/shields.

ye thats what i want..a bit of a challenge..if i ran in2 some1s mothership..and i was thinking that the mothership only comes in2 effect if another mothership is encountered!

well first this is so my idea changed around hahaha

but i like this it would mean you would need to work on all areas of m/s not just building lots of fleets
