I did it - I took over Earth!

8 and 1/2 hours, but I did it. I completely cheated though.
I used the Asteroid Beam and EVula's Chearter plug-in. With and escape pod (as a ship) and the Asteroid Beams I landed on Stardock Alpha then positioned the escape pod towards Earth. I got a heavy object put it on my secondary weapon key and then demanded tribute to Earth. Then I turned off my moniter and left for a while. I checked up on it a few time. 8.5 hours later the Frigates stoped coming out! Too bad it was only 5,000 Credits tribute. 🙂

Kekekeke. 😄

Next time try to do it without cheats 😉

But good job anyways.

Nah. Jump in, knock off four frigates, jump out. Land on Alpha Centauri, jump in again etc.

I think I may almost be done with it without cheating. I've been picking of 20 or so everyday for a very long time now. Who knows when I'll knock it off, finally.

Once you're do finish, try dominating Earth in EVGE 😛

If you're going to succeed with a cheat, it'd have to be one heck of a cheat (like invincibility or something), because even with the Alien Marauder you'll be mauled pretty fast.

You know everytime you leave the system the defense fleets go back up to their orginal number of ships. 😛

I know.

The "ships" in the Earth defense fleet in EVGE take quite a while to actually die, and you'll generally be obliterated before you can attrit them by more than 1 or 2 and leave the system. That is, unless you're completely invincible (shieldre = 1 or something).

One time after taking out all of the ships at a planet, I accidently landed on the planet without demanding tribute again. I took off demanded tribute and no ships came out. So, maybe it is different when you land on planets

Honestly.
I took over Earth without cheating...
In a Shuttlecraft...
No cheating at all...
If you want to know how...
Just ask...
I'll tell you big secret...
Okay here it is...
Get a Shuttlecraft or any ship you got then get six Rebel cruiser escorts and
attack a confed cruiser As soon as they launch all their fighters order them to halt position then hyper out, Then land and get six more rebel cruiser escorts, repeat process several times. Soon the system will be at it's ship limit, Hyper to earth demand tribute.
One Frigate will come out....
only one... --
Get your shuttle and blow it up. then demand again, another frigate will come out...
Demand about twenty times and bam, you got earth.. -
- No cheating involved.
And the goos part is, it only takes 20 minutes..

I am the Shuttle Master..

If all the world were insane, I'd fly to the moon..

You first have to fire your first six reb cruisers for you get six more -_-...

If all the world were insane, I'd fly to the moon

Hmm, sounds bothersome. I think I rather get a goverment ship (Rebel Cruiser or Destroyer, havent tried Destroyer yet) and have a good mix of escorts. Like the six Rebel Cruisers you suggest, or a mix or Rebel Destroyers, Cruisers, and Kestrels.

I am eager to try to ansver mission questions

Actually, that's a fairly well-known loophole in the game, and I'd consider it a cheat. But it does work, and if you like it, I guess it can be satisfying in a way...

Actually... The defense fleets of planet do not instantly recharge. They slowly build themselves back up. This is something that I found out from Matt Burch just recently.

thats because, it would be unbalanced if they instantly rebulid their fleet.

Have you ever noticed, when you kill all their defence fleet in one hit, they dont send any out untill you demand tribute a second time.

I think he means that Cruisers work the best because they have fighters and they release them really really fast. Is that right?

Congrats on taking over Earth, Destroyer. I wish I had that much spare time. 🙂
