Bases can not be upgraded. They are static. They are designed to allow you to gain better control over your planet and system.

Yes, fighters and torps are launched automattically when your planet is attacked.

I think the amount of fightes released is directly equal to the amount of energy the planet has. SO DO NOT RUN LOW. And remember if you have your planet set to ALL TRADE, someone could buy all your energy then attack your planet.

I don't know about how to find out what our own planets are capitable of. I'll have to ask CNC.

You can also email the games creater and ask him. (His name is rick something I think. I beleive there is a link to his email on every page.)

I think the object of the game is to waste our lives away on the web. I can not really find any other reason to play it. Addictive like Planetarion, and Earth 2035, but more pathetic.

Oh I editted my post below too.

So... does it get any better than this? I mean, I haven't progressed very far really, but unless someone finds all my planets and wipes me out, there's nothing much to stop me (eventually) having stacks of 5 planet systems with impenetrable defences and hundreds of millions in the bank... what is there to do then? Or is this whole game just a cleverly devised lesson in the fundamental emptiness of an existence devoted entirely to the accumulation of material wealth?

if you get tired of peacefully building your empire you always have mankinds other favorite pasttime, WAR. myself i prefer to peacefully build my empire. there are 3000 systems to explore, with 20 people playing the game thats 150 systems each times 5 planets per system gives us each 750 planets to rule. i want to see how many i can control before i go crazy from the amount of management necessary.
so i would agree with atrocities reasoning for the game.
