They've been seen travelling in packs, looking for the most Evil people they can find, to annihilate them and ravage their planets.
Evil beware!

why did you pick the big eared weirdos from startrek ?
1) How the heck do i go about building mines for defense? I can't seem to find where to make them. Found Mine Deflectors, and I've ran into some mines before, so I know they are out there! 
2) Does Ore and/or Goods serve any useful function on a planet? They need 10% organics to survive, and energy is used for shields/beam weapons on the defense (right?), but what about the other two? Should I not even worry about producing ore/goods from any future planets of mine?
Just those two for now, If I think of anymore, I will ask
organics is useless, energy is important for a military planet, ore and goods will sell nicely, etc.
also, my ship is no longer a flying phallus! hooray. now i'm a flying saucer.
I'm a nice guy... the tolls my fighters "ask" for is quite reasonable... annoyed my that Lenlalron killed about 25k of my fighters and detonated almost 6k of my mines...
Don't you know that a mine is a terrible thing to waste?

You dont build mines, you have to buy them at special ports (As far as I know).
Organics are consumed by your colonists. Sure, you can make a few organic port runs and get like 2000000 on the planet and have them just make creds/energy/fighters/torps, but its much easier just to put 10% on organics and be happy.
The ore and goods are there to make for you to sell, but if you have more then one planet, it does suck, since you have to collect from each (There's no collect all like there is for credits), then fly to a port, etc.
A planet without a base can only hold 10mil credits. After that, it has no limit (As far as I can tell).. so get a base asap. 
If you go into the devices menu when in orbit around a planet, click on torpedoes/fighters to leave them as defenses.
I got 760k+ creds when Len paid my planets a visit. He also destroyed my fighters in both. :/

they consume very little, if any, so it's easier just to buy some every once in awhile.

When a planet has 50-100 MILLION people on it, they consume a lot. 10% production can make enough for the rest of everyone else on that planet (Since the more people you have, the more produce, and so on).
I didnt notice that mines are deployed torps. :/
that was kind of funny.
i thought planetary combat would work like other types. i suppose i was wrong.
good bye, lady luck! you served me well.
If my colonists ever start having sex, I might have have enough to make more then 20k creds/2 updates and get that kinda cash. Heh.
I just go through trade route like... 80 times, and then boom. I have the money. ^_^
Sooo... I would like to announce, I'm opening a loan service. Five percent more then Iloan you, with an extra 1% a day. you do not pay in 2 days, I come find you and kick yer butt.
So if anyone wants anything, PM me in Conquest.
I can also deal in colonists, ore, goods, and energy.

since my ship got trashed, and getting to my planet will be difficult with level 0 engines, could i borrow some ph@t cash? i think i'm in sol sector right now, but i'm not sure. i don't need anything huge and i could probably pay you right back, but right now i'm a sitting duck.

All loans are subject to approval. If you died like.. 60 times, I doubt you're gonna get a loan, cause I probably won't get paid back. There also may be wait times while I get my money together, since I'm still upgrading my ship.

really, no hard feelings here. new ships ARE cheap. :P i somehow had 40000-something energy which i sold, which got me semi-decent engines. my planet has a stockpile of credits.

Wait till you get past 10 for upgrades, were talking MILLLIONS! I think my last upgrade cost me 6 mil, for 2 things. and they were cheap compared to what I almost spent.

i'm already up to tech level 10.
Torpedos
Now, if I go to devices and use them, they become mines like any other mines
What if I leave them at the planet? If the planet is attacked, they are fired at the attacker right?
Fighters
If deployed under devices, they hang around and either attack or toll anyone that enters the sector right?
If put on the planet, they defend only if someone attacks that planet?

Torpedos when used as sector defences (You can see them when you place them as mines) will attack anyone in that sector that isnt allied with you. Doesnt matter, mine deflectors are cheap.
When on a planet, they are fired like torpedoes whenever someone attacks.
Fighters are basically the same way, only you can have them impose a toll. Fun to set up a large fighter bit in a traderoute to toll, have them pay, but get blown up by mines anyway. 
When fighters are on a planet, they're launched like any other fighters in a fight.

Oh, and drys: More details on this roaming band of pirate killers! 
Are they just total ship killers or would I have a chance to fight them?
How can this be?
See ya all next game

I hope they like gnolls =D Gnolltopia is coming along happily. No war! We're Gneutral.
Dont mess with us though, we're rabid when we're attacked! RAAR

Implement a way for planets to repair a ships armor!
