Hey all,

I need to know how credits work with invasions. I know that it costs double the credits to invade as it does to colonize. What I need to know is if the credits are paid on a successful invasion, or if it costs credits every time I try to invade, regardless of whether it succeeds or not.

As some of you may know already from my other post that I found a juicy Terra planet with 3X Mega Rich resources controlled by someone at rank 13.

I was told that I need to have my attack as high as possible to improve odds of an successful invasion. This guy has one structure worth +10 defense and another structure worth +10 attack. Only one of each. Does legion size help in invasions? Are there other factors to improve my odds?

Its tough for me to scrounge up about 250k credits (the amount I'll need to invade) so I want to get it right the first time. I'm still Rank 19- I need to know the answers to all those questions. It'll help determine whether I stay Rank 19 until newbie protections drops or if I go ahead and level up now and then try invading that Terra planet.

You will only be charged the credits if you are successful with your invasion. However, the energy cost is used up regardless.

Legion bonuses only benefit the planet, not the attacker.
