then came the waiting game as I wanted to avoid popping moons

As I was waiting, seeing lots of resources on the planet, I launched and made good returns,
GOW then came and crashed my sats on my colony to gain back the resources,
Later I found some resources sitting again and struck making another profit,
The attack caught GOW unaware while online

Knowing GOW will strike the same planet again for the sats and resources I made a habit of checking my overview more often every day,
The raid on my planet came but with my main fleet and the majority of my recs on a fleetsave,
I had another fleet returning from another hit an hour before the raid,
Set some EC to arrive on the moon a few min before carrying some deut and then jumped the fleet and launched to my planet:
Timed it to arrive a second before the hit

The defender has won the battle !
The attacker has lost a total of 652.500.000 units.
The defender has lost a total of 69.256.350 units.
A debris field containing 270.433.410 units of Metal and 137.533.500 units of Crystal has formed in orbit around the planet.
The probability of creating a moon is : 19 %
Great sportsmanship GOW and a huge GLOTR

I'll enjoy those resources lol
