I think it's all luck depending on if anybody has abandoned any planets lately. Some people claim that more fleets give you a better chance, but I don't think it matters. I did abandon one yesterday though, so keep trying.

a) Other than stealing and finding, no that's the only two ways to get them

b) To steal them you have to "conquer planet" with more mothership fleet power than the defense of the planet you are trying to steal. Be warned, people get very irritated when you attack their planets, so if you do it be very sure you can withstand attacks from them, their commander, or alliance. If you have doubts, then don't bother.

To be honest though, planets really aren't worth the trouble unless you have a BUNCH of spare naq to put a respectable defense on them. Even then it's still pretty easy for people to mass the defense if they really want to, so if you're short on naq you're better off spending it on things that people can't take away - like Unit Production, AT, or lifers.

For finding a planet stats dont matter

For stealing a planet, only fighters 'fleets' matter.

For defending planets, you buy defense slots for them

They vary in price depending on the size of the planet.

wats the point in having more than one planet?

can u get naq on one and send it to ur main planet?

and do u have amount of turns on one planet and a different amount on another... etc


what advantages does having more than one planet give u?

Planets give bonuses, depending on their type :)
They give 'raw' income or UP (beware: UP is highly popular, so will get taken quickly) if that is that their type, or 50% additional worth of either your covert, strike or defense (again, depends on the type of planet). More types of the same means more bonus ;)

income and UP planets are explanatory

atk and def planets are not so self-explanatory as a hidden benefit comes with them. they add to your ms atk/def capacity in during atks provided u hav enuff unsed capacity ie- 1 bil strike and a 1 bil atk planet. instead of 500mil atk contributed, planet will give ms strike 500mil extra strike

Servilla, if you're not absolutely sure you can defend your planet(building def. structures on it to keep it), I would say don't bother looking for one...at least not until you're ready.

im gonna try and get one now, but i wont to get one from someone low lvl so they dont have a good def, is there a way to tell that someone has more than 1 planet just by looking at there name after u click "attack" other than clicking on there name, cause i tried looking for a planet for 10 mins now and im getting fed up with clicking on there names
