The Beauty of Zombie players

Just found an omega crew planet with a zombie player with his SY parked on it. Nearby was a regular blue planet with his Resource station then hovering nearby was a science station and another resources station.

His powerlevel is under 200 and has been that way for over a week. I've moved in a SY and resource station. The SY I raided then conquered but the other stations I'm leaving in place as a training academy for my officers. Going to raid them every other day for the EXP. This little operation netted me 46 EXP for the commander in question and took minutes. The cost in ships is low since his tech level is so low but the 3 stations are so close I'm going to farm them for EXP as it seems he got in and played for 15 minutes and has never come back to the game.
I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!

the omega crew caught my eye. I ditched a theta crew for it. I think all told I have only 2 crew planets.

I had a previous set up with about a dozen silo stations in rows shaped like a cube and repeatedly raided it but accidently moved the SY and lost it. If the player ever turns up and squaks I'll just cease from raiding him. Besides there looks to be another zombie close by to this location as well.

Tempting, but I don't want the time investment.  I'm satisfied with the twice login each day. I have enough other more productive hobbies to work on like writing Jurak Hangna articles.

I can agree with that.

This is part of my regular log in to the game as the stations need time to rebuild after being damaged. and they are sitting right there almost on top of my omega planet so its easy access.

Alright, i have 15 zombie stations clustered around a SY and I send a fleet to raid them all every so many days (let them recover from being attacked). and the latest raid series just granered 156 EXP for the admiral involved. Just 3 more raid series and he will be at 45%. Then I'll send one of the 35%ers out on training manuevers.

I suppose you could create your own zombie- create a facebook account and log join the game, build up to something like 10 stations and send them to sit in a nice easy to raid pattern by your closest SY. No one will say boo about you raiding them.

And low and behold the commander levels just went up and there is room to grow there as well.
