Re: Defense for small planets!?
I always felt for defending small planets or any planet for that matter you have to decide what defence stag. you want for each type of planet.
Usually with med, small or tiny planets I use them to house system wide fac's wharehouses, research or intel planets.
(p.s. ) I aways take the 125% racial trait for planets.
So for small planets if there by themselves then I will place what system wide's i want on them up to max 2. 1 slot for ship yard and the remaining 3 for cargo holds.
If a small or tiny planet is orbiting a large planet then they will just have cargo fac's and one of the orbiting planets will have a ship yard.
I fill them with weapons platforms, fighters and soldiers. Usually a 50, 30 , 20 mix. on 60 % of the cargo hold. The remaining 40 % go to inbound and outbound units
I also try to build orbital platforms to help with this defence.
But it all depends on the mod.
And another consideration to take into account is the location of the small planet
Further back from the front the more they will be producing out bound units.
The good thing about this is that you can create a non-static planet defence system based on your needs short term and long term.
The 40 % used for short term and the remaining 60% for long term.
THis makes sence right???????
