Since energy is only used to power mines, and you cannot build mines on a moon, there is no point building sats orbitting a moon as their power would be wasted.

I'm really horrible with math, does anyone know how many small cargo ships it would take for a 1% and/or 20% chance? even roughly?

And what would be required for defenses to make sure you destroyed them all?

That is just lazy.

The max moonshot is currently at 18%, so just send 50 Battleships.

Actually I'm being serious I'm horrible with percentages.
Why would you send battleships for a moonshot though, I thought you were supposed to send cargo ships?
And I was told it was 20% so thank you for the info, even 2% worth of materials at that level is enough not to want to waste them.

I revealed too much to the noobs already. Trust me.

You can figure it out yourself. I did.

Obviously, have the Fleet and Defense in place that can crush the 50 BS.

Ok two more stupid questions, 50 BS = 1% chance?
And I'm not sure what defenses would be needed to kill 50 BS, (besides alot) any suggestions?

50 bs gives 18% chance

to kill 50 bs you need more bs then that but generally 500 bs will kill 50 bs without any losses

I just got attacked and got 18% moon chance. How long does it usually take for the moon to form? Wondering weather I should start collecting the debis or wait for the moon to form first.
