"DEFENDING PLANETS"

[:: Legends Of The Jedi ::]

Your strategy for protecting your worlds will depend on how you think they are
likely to be attacked.

Against Military Capture

If you think your enemy is likely to use brute force to capture your planets,
it is best to raise military funding levels as high as possible (75). It will
take time for actual military presence to reach this level, so do it a day or
two before you anticipate any attempt to capture the planet.

This can be costly, so raising taxes may be necessary to pay for it, despite
the negative impact on public opinion.

In effect, this will increase the amount of time it takes for your enemy to
capture the planet, giving you more time to respond defensively when they try
it.

In extreme cases, you can even blockade your own planets in advance for a
couple of hours to actively raise military levels as high as 100. This will
fall back down to your military funding level gradually, taking about 12 hours
to fall back down to 75.

Against Public Opinion Capture

Even when taking a planet by swaying public opinion, your enemy will need at
least as much of a military presence as you have, so raising your military
presence will increase the time it takes to capture it.

Otherwise, it's helpful to manage public opinion directly by conducting
propaganda and bribery on behalf of your clan or using propaganda against your
enemy. Even if the planet absolutely hates your clan due to bombardment, you
can still use propaganda against the enemy clan to make their job harder.
