Any strategies on how to whoop a** in Space Mode?The goddamn stupid aliens keep breaking alliances and attacking me whenever I use the BIG BADDA BANG bomb and that really ticks me off.If anyone has any strategies on how to take care of these dorks effectively[as in destroy the scum in one single blow] I'd really appreciate it.

They're supposed to attack you. Using a planet buster is breaking galactic law. In other words, you scared the crap out of them, so now they want to kill you.

LOL..yeah..it break intergalactic law thingy..use it only if you want to become Darth Vader..

Oh yeah sure they acted all scared like so scared they managed to attack 5 colonies at once.Scared...sheesh!I'd hate to see them angry and furious.

Meh, Planet Busters aren't that useful anyway. Remember: pillage, THEN burn. Unless you're making nice-nice with the Grox, which is always funny.

Best strategy for space combat I use is to land ASAP because space combat sucks, and planet combat is easy. Upgrade your pulse laser to Mega Pulse, and just keep taking passes over the city and firing one shot at a time. After you take out 2 or 3 buildings, it's like 4 shots to make them surrender. The reason you make passes is because the defense lasers take time to fire and the enemy ship AI is pretty slow to react when you change directions.

Another trick that occasionally works is to take out all the enemy ships, and sometimes but not always you can use the Mega Bomb just above the range of their city's defense lasers. Ideally, they can't fire back while you pound them senseless.

Oh, and try to stock up on anti-matter bombs for enemy capital planets. It's so much easier if you can soften them up by 3 or 4 cities before you make the final push.

first get some allies then use raider rally on the planet wait until the raiders are done and after they are done attacking attack the the remaining citys on the planet.
