Takeovers are declared (with the attacker's boosts) during the Settle sequence in player order and are all resolved at the end of the phase; only the defender may add military afterwards. Settle bonuses that depend on a takeover come after it resolves. A takeover of a world being replaced still targets the original world while pending.
