Or... you could write a very simple script that builds MC, and have 100% baller planets.

Mind Control has been outlawed in our colonies, and we are founding members of the Anti-Mind Control Alliance and the Equal Rights for All Aliens Society.

Your second sentence didn't quite make sense to us. Aren't all planets suitable for inhabitation more or less ball-ish?

[fodder]

does he mean planetary def?

[LilWolf]

Sorry, De-Legro, I just ended the war with Hierulf. It was either that or me quitting the game. Need a bit of peace time to get things under control in just about every regard.

He seems pretty adverse to war so I don't really see it that hard to get peace out of him if you want to, especially if you tell him you attacked only to help me out.

Yeah no problem, I will see if he wants some peace and go back to focusing on other targets? I took a fair few planets in my first blitz though, not sure it was worth the few hundred thousand battleships I lost, but I have learnt some VERY interesting ways to attack heavily PD defences now, so I am confident I can take down most players using that system.

[fodder]

what.. you mean damaging the planet enough to take it off line but not enough to take the planet?

Nah, that still cost me a stack of ships. If I have the size advantage sure that will work, though be costly. If I'm against a better resourced or more active empire that is just going to waste my fleets.

I just found this on one of my planets:

Credits:   Debits:
Income Tax   476599   
Mind Control   -1000
Fleet Upkeep   -2164500
Total Credits
476599   
Total Debits
-2165500
Budget Surplus
-1688901

Thing is, there isn't a fleet near the planet, let alone a fleet taking over 2 million a turn in upkeep... any idea what could be wrong?

Yup, its not talking about fleets near the planet. Upkeep is fleets built on the planet.

[Sacha]

Wait... so you pay upkeep for any fleet built on that planet? That's baaaaaad... I'm gona have a bunch of bankrupt frontline planets -_-

[fodder]

you didn't know? XD you even pay upkeep for enemy ships (if you captured the ships' home planet)

[Sacha]

oh well... i had too many planets anyway, what's a few ruined ones :p

[Gustav Kuriga]

ah, Sacha, been meaning to talk to you. I'm Komurov, if you didn't know.

[Vellos]

ah, Sacha, been meaning to talk to you. I'm Komurov, if you didn't know.

You're Komurov AND GundamMerc?

Bah!

That's one of those things that Dave knows is messed up but hasn't fixed it yet. We all have to deal with it.

[Gustav Kuriga]

Muahahaha! Komurov is my wayward colony.
