I'm kinda confused right now on how the game works... Which server is the one I can build and bomb on? Or is it even possible to build and bomb anymore? I tried to build but there's no empty planet. I tried to bomb but it doesn't work and I get no pres.
Is this a bug or is this how the game works now a days? Just wondering because fighting all the time is kind of getting boring and just isn't enough pres. Do I have to do something to get better pres?
Thanks in advance for the help..

always make your when bombing that your bombs are reaching thier intended target.
this means, they are not getting point defenced, or that you are not infact too close the planet for the bombs to arm themselves. (300gu iirc)
~~~~
as for building, feel free to build on the planets as the AI's have been doing the building. as you will notice the planets are generic and require player tweaking. just dont screw up
hope that helps

Well, when I bomb I always start at 1000gu and I usually wait till I see them hit the planet before I take off. But nothing happens. It's like the bombs don't hit at all. It's not an ICC planet either. Is this a bug?
Also they aren't destroyed either they actually all hit the planet. [ This Message was edited by: EldestGrim on 2009-01-31 05:54 ]

Are you just targetting the planet or individual buildings?
Bombing in this version is not like 483 where you just unload a stack of bombs at the planet and everything omn the planet vapourises.
Instead you need a scanner ( or an ally in close) so that you can see individual buildings.
Target those and then bomb.
Piece of advice - the def bases go off if they lose tech so drop the tech and the def bases go off.
And pres gain is much lower now. USed to be able t o flatten loads of planets in the time that it now takes to cap 1 so it's not the pres machine that it was (thankfully) Bomb what you have to - cap the planet and move on.

186963.993757 for me o/
Its easier to target inf and bomb them with bio / neutrons than to kill building and rebuild etc (which you are unlikely to do after caping anyway making the planet useless)
Just fit an ecm, orbit planet around 500gu, target the building thats below the infantry pile (first inf if no building) and fire away the bombs. Found this very easy in the kluth bomber but easy with anyrace as planet defence are rubbish these days.
