Topic: What happens when..

Consider this hypothetical scenario. Noir and Paytime are close to each other in SD and both have, say, 7 planets each. Paytime decides Noir is a fat noob and wants to kill him off. Paytime then proceeds to take all of Noir's 6 planets apart from his home planet, and sends a kill fleet to Noir's home planet. Noir, being less of a noob than everyone thinks, retakes his 6 planets from Paytime while Paytime's kill fleet is still en route to Noir's home planet.

Now my question is, in this situation will the game allow Paytime to trigger his kill fleet on Noir's home planet even though Noir now controls other planets than his home? If yes, and Paytime wins the attack on Noir's home planet, then what will happen to the other planets controlled by Noir?

Re: What happens when..

Part a) yes he can trigger
Part b) the planets are in effect blown up.

Used to do this when I was a tutor, some people would explo 6 planets and then just idle, so early on i would send a kill fleet to each hp, and just leave it there for if i needed it.

Re: What happens when..

?????


no This is Wrong


I survived ages last round because I kept sending out Survival Expos.


Nobody could trigger on my home planet because I always had atleast 1 other planet.

Re: What happens when..

There was a round a few SDs back where my memory is a little iffy, but I recall sending a fleet to a HP and not being able to trigger because of it not being the last planet anymore.

You had to take the other planets first, but could then instantly trigger the HP fleet (since it was still hovering) after you racked up all the others....???
