The bomb is a powerful new artifact ****we have introduced. It has the power to regularly destroy planets within an area.

This is an extremely powerful effect, and will make it very difficult to find planets at the center of the universe, as we expect many of them to be destroyed by players over the course of the round.

Step 1 activate Bomb artifact

You need to activate Bomb artifact on your own planet. Since drop bomb operation require planet level ≥3, it is better to activate bomb on level [3,9] planet.

Bomb artifact will not disappear after deactivation.

Step 2 Drop Bomb on planet

You can only do drop bomb operation ****on level [3,9] planet.

drop bomb will make the Bomb artifact disappear, and a pink circle with 2500 radius will show up.

After activate bomb on planet, you need to wait 2 hours to do drop bomb operation

There is also a 2-hour cooldown period between two 'drop bomb' operations.

There is also a cost to drop bomb (not to destroy planets):

• 150,000 silver will need to be extracted through spacetime rips to pay for the “rare materials” needed by drop bomb operation.
• Each consecutive use will cost 10x more than the last (per player, so everyone’s first activation will cost 150,000 silver)
  • #2 = 1,500,000 silver
  • #3 = 15,000,000 silver
  • etc.

Step 3 Pink (destory) planets

Once the pink circle shows up,

there is a 2-hour cooldown before you can destroy your first planet!

You can pink (destory) level [3,9] planets in your pink circle.

Make sure you target the best planets first, and recall that only level 3+ planets can be claimed for score!

To ensure that you have some protection of planets, you can find artifacts, known as ‘Stellar Shields’, from foundries. Whilst active, these prevent a planet from being destroyed, and they also protect the planet from one Photoid Cannon attack! A great defensive mechanism!

Good luck out there, cadet!
