Planetary Invasion is a critical part of the game. Until you have researched scan modules or the Planet Transformer Chain of missions, finding excellent planets is a huge challenge. The solution is to take excellent planets from others ! However, be warned that an active pilot will not likely to be happy about it, so you should expect some retaliation from them or their legion mates.
In order to invade an enemy planet, you must first attack the planet enough times to drop the planet's population down to below 10. The maximum amount of population that will be killed per enemy attack is 20. This can be sped up using Quantum Bio-Vaporizers. Once the population is below 10, an Invade button will become active on the Planetary Actions tab. Clicking invade will attempt an invasion. A successful invasion will award you the planet as well as a green badge. The normal cooldown period between invasion attempts is 24 hours.
If your ship has a Calming Amplifier effect, you will be prevented from invading enemy planets. You can invade after clearing the effect by making a non.attack offensive action (hack, use an offensive artifact, etc.) against an enemy ship.
Invasion Chance
From the Equations page:
With thanks to Darth Flagitious
Chance% = (InvAtt/(3*InvDef))*100
Invasion Defense
Some planetary structures will increase your planetary defense, but only during planetary invasions.[1] A higher invasion defense improves your chances at defending a planet. The maximum invasion chance of an attacker is set at 90%. The Xecti race bonus applies to invasion defense.
InvDef% =(Planet Attack + Planet Defense + Invasion Defense Items) * (1+(LegionBonus/100))
Invasion Attack
Some modules and abilities will increase your attack, but only during planetary invasions.[2] A higher invasion attack improves your chances at conquering a planet up to a maximum invasion chance of 90%. The Konqul race bonus also applies to invasion attack.
InvAtt = Your Invasion Attack (Your "Normal" Attack + "normal" buffs (i.e. crux/crimson/crystal etc.) + Invasion-specific attack (from modules) + Invasion buffs (Stryll Pathogen, Mutagenic Cartridges etc.)) * Invasion %Bonus (Decimators, Kulgox)
Ship modules which provide invasion attack

Artifacts and Abilities which provide temporary buffs to invasion attack
| Name | Type | Invasion Attack | Number Available | Duration | Cooldown | Cost | Gained From |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alarri Probability Core | Ability | 5% | random | 1 hour | 20 hours | charges ? | Mission: The Aperture Principle |
| Bane Shriek | Ability | 5% | - | 1 hour | 20 hours | 250 energy | Apparitious Fearcaster GP purchase during Bane seasonal event |
| Kulgox Octal-Sac | Artifact | 10% | - | 4 hours | - | - | NPC: Kulgox Entity |
| Mutagenic Cartridges | Artifact | 1500 | 5 | 5 minutes | - | 20 energy | NPC: Bane Revenant |
| Stryll Pathogen | Artifact | 200 | - | 48 hours | - | 5 energy | NPC: Sketh, Stryll Predator |
| Vorean Biocharge | Ability | 8% | 2 charges per Vorean Bio-Ray | 1 hour | - | charges refilled via GP | Legion Mission: Vorean Extinction |
Invasion Cost
Also from the Equations page:
Each successful invasion will result in your acquisition of the planet, for double the credit cost of a Planetary colonization.
Current Simplified Formula In English (Translated By - QCubed, Corrector - FerrusManus):
Invasion Cost = ((Number Of Planets Controlled)^3) * 2000
Invasion Cooldown Timer
The normal cooldown period between invasion attempts is 24 hours.
The Bane Hypershroud series of ship modules will modify your invasion timer, with success or failure setting different cooldowns as follows:
| Upgrade | GP Cost | HyperShroud Version | (single mod) Cooldown Timer: Successful Invasion | (single mod) Cooldown Timer: Invasion Failure | (set of 2) Cooldown Timer: Successful Invasion | (set of 2) Cooldown Timer: Invasion Failure | First Year Available |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| n/a | 78 | Bane HyperShroud | 23 hours | 22 hours | 22 hours | 20 hours | 2015 |
| Bane HyperShroud II Upgrade | 71 | Bane HyperShroud II | 22 hours | 20 hours | 20 hours | 16 hours | 2016 |
| Bane HyperShroud III Upgrade | 63 | Bane HyperShroud III | 21 hours | 18 hours | 18 hours | 12 hours | 2017 |
| Bane HyperShroud IV Upgrade | 61 | Bane HyperShroud IV | 20 hours | 16 hours | 16 hours | 8 hours | 2018 |
The Paradox Generator removes any active timers for your invade, daily reward, share, abandon, hack, raid, repair, and trade abilities.
The Annex Decree removes any active timer for your invade ability, but can not be used within 4 hours of your previous invasion attempt.
Invasion Events
These events have a chance of occurring when a planet is successfully invaded. They last for one week.
