does this affect ONLY invasion attack or all attack with invasion attack added in when performing invasions? cause 14 greens is rather costly for us players who started before the badge system was implemented.

I agree especially since the max benefit is essentially 308.675 for having both of them. 28 planets is a LOT of planets and the further along in the game, the more expensive this will be. I just broke the 4B per invasion today!

I just broke the 4B per invasion today! I just hit 2B for my last invasion. On the plus side, it gave me greenie #28. Gotta agree here though. For the higher rank players the cost of a Green Badge gets pretty expensive for what, to them, is a negligible bonus. Alterations are called for!

I believe it would increase your total attack by 7% for invasion purposes, just like the Shockpulse Charger increases your entire attack against NPCs.

I've never seen or heard what brings it up.

its always double your colonization cost. so its based on how many planets you own.

It will increase your total attack, but only during the invasion.

Hmm, so assuming the player calculations on invasion chance are correct, my having ~3,000 (1500 invasion) attack and ~500 invasion attack means that with two of these I get .. 4218. That's a pretty nice boost! Regrettably, I can only afford one. Though at my level, 190, I'm probably one of the few people who have the badges for it.

Hey Dan.. one more question... the text in the purchase box says limit 2, but the someone says the text on the module says limit 4.... which is correct? (or are they both wrong and it's actually set to something totally different?)

The badge system is pretty crappy at the higher ranks.
I'm around 65b for an invade.
And, did I mention there are only 6 people on my BT. And one of them is Darkstar. A pain in the ass to disable and nearly impossible to raid.

You can say a little bit more: it will increase your invasion chance by about 15% in all cases. As in, if you had a 10% chance you would have an 11.5% chance, and if you had a 20% chance you would have a 23% chance.

chance increases a lot more than what you're thinking, Ferrus... _____________________________________________________________________________________
Before Atmospheric Player: 225 Planet: 250 Chance: 30%
Add 2x Atmospheric Player: (225 + 200) * 1.07 * 1.07 = 486.5825 Planet: 250 Chance: 64.8777%
Change: 2.1626x _____________________________________________________________________________________
Before Atmospheric Player: 2250 Planet: 2500 Chance: 30%
Add 2x Atmospheric Player: (2250 + 200) * 1.07 * 1.07 = 2805.005 Planet: 2500 Chance: 37.4001%
Change: 1.2467x _____________________________________________________________________________________
Before Atmospheric Player: 11250 Planet: 12500 Chance: 30%
Add 2x Atmospheric Player: (11250 + 200) * 1.07 * 1.07 = 13109.105 Planet: 12500 Chance: 34.9576%
Change: 1.1653x _____________________________________________________________________________________
Before Atmospheric Player: A Planet: D Chance: A/(D*3) = (A/3) / D
After Atmospheric Player: (A + 200) * 1.07 * 1.07 = 1.1449*A + 1.1449*200 = 1.1449A + 228.98 Planet: D Chance: (1.1449A + 228.98)/(D*3) = (1/3)*(1.1449A + 228.98)/D = (1.1449A/3 + 228.98/3)/D
Change: ((1.1449A/3 + 228.98/3)/D) / ((A/3)/D) = (1.1449A/3 + 228.98/3) / (A/3) = (1.1449A + 228.98)/A = (1.1449 + 228.98/A)
As player's attack approaches infinity, the benefit decreases to NO LESS than 1.1449x (roughly a 14.49% increase, but let's make sure not to confuse this with a +14.49 applied to the unmodified chance), but in most cases the benefit will be much much higher
Anyone that can follow my last example can clearly see how useful those atmospheric decimators are.... don't ask me to calculate how many legion members you need to make sure your mission dyson is still safe, though

Yes, that's what I meant, at larger attack values it's about 15%.
