and some people call the Apolyton Corporation opportunist...
btw, i fail to see how you destroy a base by leaving 3 planets and a ship untouched....

Garth, seriously. Did you actually think that you could get away from your little attack just like that? We have known your base location for a long time but left you in peace as you stated yourself.
If you had kept the 'status quo', you and Darkman would have enjoyed your well defended planet with quasar cannon completed in two days. Now you and your corp lost EVERYTHING.
Finally, a warning to all others who are thinking of some kind of vile actions towards us: we know practically all the base locations in the game. If you give us a reason - well, you know what's gonna happen to you.

Well those other planets were pretty new so I figured some of the other traders could take them.

Interpretation: your Scout got destroyed by nav hazard before you got to finish your job..

edit: Yeah I could have sat and done nothing and been pretty safe and I would have if Mark had answered my PM. Why didn't you guys answer me? But since you hit all the other corps I figured I was next and so I thought I'd be the one to actually do some damage to you guys. If I wanted to sit around and do nothing I can do that on my couch

Lame excuse. You really have an peculiar way to show your good will to our corp. I'd say that your attack was just bad strategic thinking of your corp. If you played your cards right you'd waited for your quasar cannon to be complete and leaving more figs defending the planet. Now you played like an opportunist gambler laying all your corp's property in one bet. After all, you just destroyed a planet which we didn't even created and none of your corp members. The other planets were just worth one day turns. No biggie. Okay, taking out 6t figs hurt but that drained your figs as well. Furhter, while we fly with our intact ships, you two have to start from the scratch.

If you are willing Marko Polo, could you PM me about what kinds of losses you took against my planet? I am curious about how planetary defense works in the game.

Well, you had 600+ figs on planet set to 50% offensive and 50% defensive. When I landed there, half of your figs destroyed some of my shields and the other half needed to be attacked. After that I could easily detonate the whole place. I didn't manage to save the log of my attack  so I can't tell you my fig/shield losses. Those were not so high however as my ISS has 1.5 offense/defense ratio.
Needless to say, your corp is now our enemy number one (at least in this game  ) We'll do whatever we can that your corp has no future in the current game. Your best strategic decision would now be quit playing and wait for the next reset.

More info for the newbies: When you have a level 2 citadel, offensive fighters get 2:1 odds and defensive fighters get 3:1 odds. Therefore, in this situation, where they had 600 fighters at 50% reaction, 300 figs would attack doing 600 damage to a 1:1 ship (400 vs an ISS) and the remaining defenders would require 900 figs from a 1:1 ship (or about 600 from an ISS).
