That's not a problem, only entering a storm triggers the damage. Ships built there, parked there, there before the storm is generated aren't damaged.

You don't have to get lucky, you can create as many storms in a sector as you want. You'll have everything you need.

When I played as a neutral, before I broke my treaty with the AI that controled the rest of the galaxy, I built a half a dozen storms around a planet.

The enemy entered with a massive fleet, took damage due to one of the storms, but couldn't attack because the other storms cloaked the sector and I had already knocked out it's sensor satelites.

My long range scanners told me that they still had enough firepower to ruin my fleet and planet, if I initiated an attack. So, stalemate.
