# Invasion Whenever a player has a fleet in the orbit of an enemy planet, and if that fleet contains at least 1 invasion ship and soldiers, he may invade the enemy planet. An [Army Barracks](https://manual.darkgalaxy.com/books/interface-gameplay/page/barracks "Barracks") is required to begin Training Soldiers ### Space combat If there is an enemy fleet, you encounter a [space combat](https://manual.darkgalaxy.com/books/interface-gameplay/page/combat "Combat") before being able to invade. The invasion ship has very poor armour and fleet drive, and with all the expensive soldiers in the fleet it's very important that you provide enough Military Ships cover for this ship. If you still have invasion ship after combat occurs, you can invade the planet even if there are enemy military ships in its orbit. ### Invading The invasion ship can carry 40,000 [](https://manual.darkgalaxy.com/uploads/images/gallery/2023-01/soldier.gif) Soldiers. Invading a planet uses all invasion ships in the invading fleet and all soldiers. The workers (idle+busy) and soldiers on the surface of the planet automatically defend against invasions. The attacker will loose 1 soldier for every 15 hostile workers to kill and 3 soldiers for every 2 defending soldiers.
