Actually, it's tech level, and not directly related to how tough it is to conquer. Generally your right, but I bring it up because a couple of Tech 1 planets (Nexus, for ex.) are a real ***** to conquer relative to what you get from them.

when i demand again, they will attack me with the same amount of ships again, after i win, does it mean i get 2,000 to 10,000 per day? (1,000 to 5,000)X2

If I understood that right, no. You demand tribute, they attack, and after you beat them you have to demand again before they pay you. You can't dominate a planet twice to recieve double pay.

Well, if you were using your personal pilot, then visbits could get tricky, and pliots with forklifts would have to be banned, as EVM wouldn't understand it's resource fork...

When you demand again, they will NOT attack you again. They'll pay up.

Pikeman has been here since February 2000, you since November 2001. I don't think you can assume ~anything~. He's right, anyway. We know quite a bit about Nova.

Nova will actually be very, very different than Override. Night and day.

With a little bit of the dominating planet business in the twilight zone... along with ships and planets and all that, but my oh my, how is it possible to keep making EV better and better? Isn't that impossible under the perpetual motion machine rule or somesuch?

is there is easy way to board ships?
you know, when you disable a ship, you press "b", they on the ship, most time it says chance to board is 1%, sometimes 3%, is there anyway that you can bost it up to maybe 70% chance?

In EV, the only way to have a better chance is to have a larger crew (ie: bigger ships have bigger crews; you won't be able to take over a ConFed Cruiser in a Shuttle, unless you're VERY lucky). In EVO, there is a Marines outfit that allows you to boost your chances. I believe that EVN also has a Marine outfit.

Since when was there a Marine outfit in EVO? In EV, if you have Galactic Scourge (a plug-in), there's a pirate ship called the Vulture, or somehting like that, that says in the description '500 pirate marines, armed with boarding tubes, hull-cutters, neutron rifles etc.', which ends up as 1000+ crewmembers in the ship info. It also has a lot of Defenders. With proper outfitting and some escorts, Confed and Rebel cruisers alike are a breeze to capture

Its an option for plug-in developers. I don't know if it is used in the actual game or not.
