this is pretty easy to solve. just turn off all base defences and invite a ship with PCMs(ICC ships) get him to bomb the nonsense for u. every one is happy and we don't need the tread here in the first place

That last scenario would actually be considered an exploit... you can't turn off defence to allow for an enemy to waltz in unopposed, blow the planet to bits, then you gain points for rebuilding it. It might be convenient for improving the planet, but its not allowed.
Sorry...
Any other solutions?

why get another faction to do it when you can just pcm bomb it yourself?
it would be easier

ROFLMAO! actually arch, doran was completely right.
also, pentara is right to. scrap a research factory, you lose as much construction points as it is to build one. one thing about building that i think a LOT of people do NOT understand... (let me emphasize this)
you only get points for when you build is ACTIVE
i know pent said that, but would just like to point it out. so the reason a few of you may think scrapping costs more, is because you scrap, and then power build (build more than on structure at a time), and by the time you have uilt 10 structures, you only ge pres for that 1 (ONE) your drones were working on.
the system is fine as it is. you find a idiot planet in the MV (i see one in every system at LEAST when i looke, but usually WHOLE systems), just grab an engy and rebuild. i gaurantee if i went through all of UGTO space in an engy, i'd make guite a few points.

That's not a game problem, Barth. That's just the curse we put on you.

Look , my point is simple ...
There are more than enough reasons to post here why "I" would like to see the penalty for scrapping removed, reduces ... whatever ...
This is my reason .... Your flyin along minding you own business and you and you buddies just cap say ..... a Kluth ECM Fortress. 10ECM bases that are worthless to anyone other than a Kluth.
So instead of sending a man all the way back for an engy or a build. You scrap, build and continue the fight.

Well, you certainly fit the last part of your name Fatfool. How would turning the defense bases back on after you allowed him to bomb all the buildings you don't want off be any less then an exploit?

This only applies to fleet admiral, where in the MV do you really have a chance to build? Nowhere
