Never use either of them. For vunerable planets I use a combo of mines (in space), fighters, and starbases.

A nice option would be to add a feature where one can predetermine the location of starbases, satellites, etc...upon their construction completion. Location would be permanent. It would make for some interesting strategy in planetary defense.

Of course as icing a .txt file could be added, much like the formation file, so we could mod them for the AI.

Imagine having tactical combat open and your ships are mixed up in a field of satellites. Would make planetary defense much more fun. There would be a limit of spaces you could occupy though...say 20-25.

An orbit to satellites would be fun too. Have them automatically move 1, 2 or 3 spaces around a planet.

Just stupid ideas. Take em or leave em.
