Since weapon platforms are destroyed completely random there's practically no risk to lose your command center.
Example (otherwise you won't believe
):
1 fully armored command center platform: 22000 HP
platform with weapons and armor: 6700 HP
Assume the planet is bombarded with global death ray in heavy mount, 750 damage. After 8 shots the weapon platform can be destroyed so the rest of the shots must hit to command center. That means 22000/750 - 8 = 22 consecutive shots must hit to command center. Each hit has 50% probability to hit command center, which means it's 0.5^22= 0,000023% likelihood that command center is destroyed first. And that's the best case, if there is 10 weapon and one command platform the odds are even smaller. And if the weapon does less damage than 750, like most of weapons do, the odds are again even smaller.
So do you still think it's significant risk?
