Which makes since. It should take more than a few troops to storm and take the future equivalent of a coastal weapons battery.
From the vehicle sizes file:
"Serve only as a container for weapons which fire from a planet into space (or for ground combat)."
I'd really like to see this happen, but the computer never invades my planets. Can you put platforms in the combat simulator?
