Asteroids are the primary source of revenue for a planet, and you can get them by either initiating them or by capturing them through combat. Also known simply as 'roids'.

Initiating

The base cost of an asteroid is 1000, and every asteroid costs 150 more resources to initiate than the one before it, though metal asteroids, for example, do not influence the cost of crystal or eonium asteroids. It is usually not recommended to initiate more than 300 asteroids in total. In order to initiate asteroids of a certain type, you will have to pay resources of the same type: it takes Metal to initiate Metal asteroids, it takes Crystal to initiate Crystal asteroids, and it takes Eonium to initiate Eonium asteroids.

Unlike in earlier rounds of Planetarion, you do not have to scan for asteroids.

Yield

Each asteroid gives a base income of 250 resources of one type per tick. Additionally, government bonuses, population bonuses and Finance Centres can increase your income, sometimes by more than 50%.

Stealing asteroids

The goal of attacking in Planetarion is primarily to steal asteroids. You need roiding ships to be able to steal asteroids. In combat each asteroid has 50 armor.
