Cory Trese , What role, if any, does Evasion Play in Planetary Invasion? The Evasion entry in the Ship Designer states, “Increase to avoid rolls for ALL attacks.” But, Evasion is NOT mentioned in the Planetary Invasion Discussion thread, which states, "Transport ships will use their Sensors, Invasion, Pilot and Shielding during attacks ... [and] their Durability, Shielding and Armor values to defend against damage." This info will be used in a thread on ship design and/or combat mechanics which is on the path to the creation of the much vaunted Compilation Thread. Edit: Changed Evasion to Invasion in the question. Doh!

Planetary Invasion splash damage is NOT an attack. What's Planetary Invasion splash damage? Hopefully what tenbsmith was asking about -- damage done when you attack a planet with Invade Training. If he wasn't asking about that then I have no idea and my answer is invalid because I didn't understand the question. If that's the case let me know and I'll delete it. |

Thanks Cory Trese, based on you post, it seems Evasion does NOT contribute during Planetary Invasion (PI). During PI, which stats--Sensors, Invasion, Pilot and Shielding--contribute to to-hit rolls and which to to-avoid rolls? (I assume Faction invasion ships make both to-hit and to-avoid rolls during PI.) Using different stats in PI than in ship-to-ship makes the game more interesting. Thanks for the depth. :-) |

What's Planetary Invasion splash damage? Hopefully what tenbsmith was asking about -- damage done when you attack a planet with Invade Training..... Does "damage done" in the sentence above refer to damage done to the planet, or damage done to the Transport? ..... During PI, which stats--Sensors, Invasion, Pilot and Shielding--contribute to to-hit rolls and which to to-avoid rolls? .... I'd be really interested to hearing the answer to this one, too.  |

I was talking about damage done to the Transport because that is what tenbsmith was talking about. |

Thanks Cory Trese. If you'd answer one more question, it'd be appreciated. During Planetary Invasion, which stats--Sensors, Invasion, Pilot and Shielding--contribute to to-hit rolls and which to to-avoid rolls? |
