Its been a while since I played TW, and I can't remember how to chase off the Ferrengi. I know you have to invade Ferrengal, but am I supposed to destory it or just put fighters in the sector? Could someone please refresh my memory?

settings=
v 3.11.55 Gold
Classic Ferrengi=yes
Invincible Ferrengal=no

ps: when you look at the game settings are the Ferrengi holdings included in the planets, citadels, and fighter totals?
Also are fighters that are on planets (any planet) included in the totals?

Thanks in advance.

Chasing off the ferrengi [?]
IT use to be that you could put 50k figs in their sector and they could not spawn.
That has probably changed though [:(]
If you blow up their planet , another will be made if there are no player fighters in sector.
And they will hunt for their planet if you take it away .

Ok , the total fighters/planets in game are reported in the V screen , and all fighters except those on ships are counted , even the ones on Tera.

I hope this helps [8D]

The V screen reports all fighters in sectors, on manned ships, and on planets. It does not count fighters on unmanned ships or on terra.

Kemper , I do believe it does count the fighters on tera.
But your right , not unmanned ships .. that would be a way to hide your fighters if you choose to hide them.

Don't argue with Kemper he is right.

I just did some testing to make sure. Figs on terra are not counted in the V count:
