An Alien invasion of our universe has begun!
Reports show that planets belonging to Sp Confederation will be taken over every 6 hours. Colony's have reported that they will be broadcasting help signals with there co-ordinates in the occurrence that they come under attack.
We also have information that planets over 1.5mil belonging to Sp Confederation are not out of the reach of the Aliens and they have begun taking over them too.

Help us to destroy this new enemy and take back what is rightfully ours

And those planets with over 1.5m defense... will they slowly deteriorate? Or will we just get points for pwning them?

i would be more excited bout this if we had more than 5k planets in the galaxy...
if you think about it this will just make them go down faster.

The current planet situation will be voted upon at the SL council meeting.
Whether a planet drop is needed will be decided then.

Currently a system ( 3 planets ) is dropped per hour.
That can be increased/decreased etc...

i still think it should be a community wide poll :/
o well, as long as things keep getting done ill be happy

well, while it may not help the low planet problem, I don't think losing 4 additional planets a day is going to hurt anything

Blazecon there is a community wide poll.

You can post and vote on different ideas and fixes.

Also I would suggest the old probing methods... I turned active last week and next to some bz planets I found a couple of SPC chains that brought a total of I think about 48 planets (16 systems...)

As soon as u start investing in probes, you find stuff (although it isn't much...)

Why aren't the shields being knocked down?
It would seem that if taking a planet for the rest of us wipes out the buildings, including shields that the aliens should experience the same thing.
