I Experimented with adding attacking to my Fed Space Trader Strategy... I Bought A Razorback and Upgraded the attack levels to 280-285... It didnt cost that much and was very effective against Soft targets and A&R And when I sold it back it paid for the Loan I had to take for planet Busting Upgrades. Now I am back in Fed Space waiting for Turns and Credit Replenishment. It worked Slick, but I know that sooner or later I will mis read a sector and go BOOM! My next exploration will be finding new attack targets. Setting a home planet works out neat for when I mis read a sector and go BOOM.... I dont have to watch the timer and only attack at the top of the countdown. with a home planet I just keep on attacking not worried about being podded to Fed Space during my attacks.
