On the *news* click on HELP. at the bottom of that menu is the battle calculator. You can just enter what you know, I believe an unknown planet has 0 science levels, but you can look that up in the FAQ - it lists what an unknown planet is all about.

BTW I am at Gamma Alfecca Meridiana (72/-27)

I will try to see where you are at =)

PS thanks for recomending this.

PS is there a way that we can all ally up?

You will need 29 Destroyers to be 100% sure of victory ( Assuming science is zero on both sides ) ... however in order to take over the planet you will need transports equal to the population level of the planet ( ie. pop 4 = 4 transports ) ... one other thing when it comes to " unknown " planets is that they may still have destroyers circling them so send a bit more than you " need " to do the job ... Happy Hunting

well thanks for the tips, I guess I have to build a bunch of destroyers, I am at Math level 5 so I am closer to getting a new ship.

I must say it is a bit slow of a game but I think that it just takes a bit to get into it.

I hope you don't mind me asking some newbe questions but would it make more sence for me to attact a long time idle planet that is close to me with 2 star bases? And do you get stuff when you destroy a planet?

[Nemain]

You get experience, and how long have they been idle?

I know it is illigal, but some players make like three chars in a row ( the last time i started a guy did this) under different names. Then they just let them idle away, and destroy them for xp.

Long story short - be careful who you attack. not to mention allies :P

well thanks for the tips,

No problemo ... ask away

I guess I have to build a bunch of destroyers, I am at Math level 5 so I am closer to getting a new ship.

At level 6 you will get a 50% bonus for fewer losses in battle as long as your opponent is at level 0 ( if you are 6 levels above your opponent you get this bonus ) ... you dont get Battleships till you reach Physics level 15 and Cruisers at Math level 15

I must say it is a bit slow of a game but I think that it just takes a bit to get into it.

Yea ... it slowly reels you in

would it make more sence for me to attack a long time idle planet that is close to me with 2 star bases? And do you get stuff when you destroy a planet ?

Most definately ... you get I believe 50% of the PP's ... then you can use the combined PP's to build a bigger fleet ... it really takes off once you can do that and also when you can got neighbouring star systems

We should band together for an alliance.

Sure, how do we do that?

Need a bit more XP and money to do a formal alliance... just know where we are and help out when we can until we reach high enough to form a offical alliance..

[Trevor Robertson]

okay I am sitting here at work tring to read all the stuff on the web pages now but I hope I can bother you with one more question.

How do you know how far away you are? I know I can move my ships and click calculate time but that is only for the 8 planets in my system how do I go out side of that area?

[LostMind]

To get outside that area, I believe you need to increase your Biology science?
