Ok, I figured out the ship adding defense and attack to the planet.
What i don't get is the cloak guards that are added.

I thought maybe it was my ships cloak-scan but that wasn't it either.

Could someone point me to where the answer is?

Legion bonus is based on the number of members in a legion x 2.

For example:

Planet X has 200 cloak
Planet X is controlled by a legion that has 40 members.
40 members x 2 increases attack/defense/cloak by 80%
Convert that to a percentage
80% of 200 cloak is 160
200 planet cloak and 160 legion bonus cloak make 360 total cloak

Kaos that is not what I meant.
When I chose to guard my planet with my ship guards are added to the amount before the legion bonus multiplication.

How do you figure out the guards you'll get based upon your ship stats. I messed around and the defense and attack seemed to be straight from your ships stats (or equal to) but the cloak was different.

Never mind the cloak is the same as on the ship.
I guess you need to wait a while before the game up dates the cloak.
It seems strange that the attack and defense updated immediately as I changed my ships configuration but the cloak didn't.
Everything is good now.

NEVER guard a planet that is cloaked that you want to protect.

Titancore will only scan planets that are being guarded.

Given that there is thousands of players guarding planets and less than a forth are even a high enough level to do the titan core missions that makes the chance negligible. adding your ship's 100+ cloak is more likely to hide the planet.

Are you positive that's what it means? And not just that it gives a planet controlled by another player, not necessarily guarded by one?

EDIT: Yeah, Titancore Data just gives you an occupied planet, not necessarily a guarded planet.
