Transform 2 planets into one
for example

Hallowed bane transformer

Demon/volcanic + Terra/Aphoic = Hallowed planet Bonus +3 to all resources (A spooky planet filled with ghosts and monsters)

polluted transformer

Terra + toxic/Irradiated = polluted planet Bonus +1 size +1 to all resources (A extremely toxic planet filled with mutants)

Acidic planet transformer

Demon/volcanic + toxic/Irradiated = Acidic planet Bonus +2 to all resources (Very similar to a volcanic but green)

The new stats are based on the two planets for example

average sized planet very abundant Mining + very large rich Mining = Large ex abundant + bonuses

the idea isnt to bad but id like something that used metallics also

+1 for any new planets (within reason).

Demon + Metallic = Gilded Planet


Idea for Demon + Terra = Phantom Planet, The living spirit.

Combining planets huh? Interesting... The idea needs some work but could be ok if done right. I don't think it would be a bane item. It would have to be limited to maybe 5 of them available through missions. Something like this...


Mission - Gravitational Research
400 energy per round, 80 rounds per completion, 5 completions total
Every completion you receive...

Orbital Shifter
You cause the orbits of two planets to intersect causing a collision and a new larger planet is produced.
Effect: select two planets you control, the largest planet receives +3 size (maximum of mega colossal), +2 to all resources. The smaller planet is permanently destroyed.

Not sure if coding exists to erase a planet from the system though...

I think we might have talked or at least mentioned before that an Ecumenopolis and maybe even an an Aphotic could be of any type. Ecumenopolis planets are just completely urbanized planets.

The problem I have with new types of transformers is that it is not really that different than any other kind. It just changes a specific size and production bonus. I think a new planet type should be adding some kind of passive effect. I also think that adding +1 size makes everyone just find the biggest planet to use. The galaxy is filled with good producing horribly-sized planets. The below makes any metallic planet sized average to massive a candidate.

From Dec. 2011:

Hmm, i like this, but what about natural exotics, inclue those too, like
Exotic+Any planet=Solar planet, cannot biuld population structures, but gains 1.5k passive to atk and def,
the abocve is a example, may not be accepted, can be changed

demon + rift

celestial planet

+5% space
+1 resource of your choice for every demon planet you have conquered (no limit)

(lol good vs evil kinda thing)

metalic + demon/volcanic

mercury planet?

i think this should be more of a fusion chamber like rereks post
but costs lots of energy and resource an a week long cooldown

There should also be the ability to create planets that are more common.

Barren + Barren = Desert

Oceanic + Desert = Terra

this +1

Make a very tiny planet nto a moon, the smaller the planet, the beter chance it succeeds, the bigger, the lower the chance, from a mission, 5 completions end, 40 en per 400 completions, each completion give u the artifact
Gravitational Anomaly Creator
Harraness the gravity of a larger planet to try and make a smaller planet it's moon,

the larger the large planet is, the higher the succes rate, the smaller the smaller planet is, the higher chance o succes rate, if succes, the larger planet gains the effect "large moons" cannot be used on a planet with large moons, small moons, or large moons, after the arti is used on the larger planet, reality trnasfuser cannot be used on it anymore. The smalle planet disappears after the use, and if failure the small planet crashes into the large planet, the small planet is oliborated, and the larger planet becomes a very tiny ex sparse on everything planet. All biuldings r obliborated. Cannot be used on invincible planets

Dislike this post

+1 on the condition you need 5 GP to convert.

Why 5 GP? because normally you would have to drop your crap planets with GP
or wait for a noob to take them.

This you can make a crap planet into one of your best by combining them for free.
This is unfair for all who carry on abandoning or has abandon the planets.

I mean, very large barren + large barren = very large desert?
Very large desert + very massive oceanis = massive terra?

To get a massive terra you would need a expander, so 5 GP for each use of the ability isn't much to ask.

I agree with ODragon. +x to size, +x to resource is boring. All you get is a planet we already have just with a new picture. At this stage, any new planet types need to have features that make them unique. As it stands now, through TFs and racial abilities we can make nonsensical planets. 20x Artifact Gas Planets?? Permanent versions of the temporary effects (good and bad) would make things a lot more interesting. + something combined with a - something else would also add a extra degree of reward/sacrifice when improving planets.
