    • Hehe.Another way to beat it is to get a cheater, stuff your ship with fighters,and launch them all at the beginning of the battle. Be sure to get escorts as well. This will make them only able to send one ship and that is just all too easy to defeat. Of course,It ruins the experience of finally beating luna's defences. Oh well.

    • I think luna has very annouying Light Freighters. Earth is the one that has 32K in Frigates :). 32K in Lt. Freighters is really boring.

    • Luna has just over 3,100 patrol ships and Gunboats for you to deal with.

    • In an Alien Marauder from EVGE, one shot from the disintegrator, and they're all gone... 😄 As you can tell, I like that ship...a LOT.

      I think it has been mention before that to interpret the character 32765 you first take 1 off the left most number (3) and then you use the right most number (5) to see how many are out at a time. So there are 2276 frigates and only 5 are out at a time, if your original figure is accurate.

      I coulda sworn they were light frieghters. Well one of the sol system planets has them. REALLY annouying ships 🙂

      Light Freighters? Protecting the Sol system, I don't think so.

    • Luna? I don't think so. Earth, the headquarters of the confederation, is right next door. If you're new at planetary domination, go for the pirate systems, or the independent ones. NOT the 2 main governments. That's suicide.

      Or before you demand tribute, disable as many ships in the system as possible, until there are 32 disabled ships (or whatever that number is). It should have the same effect.
