Default Re: Defending Planets

My problem with defending planets is that it's a lot of time/resources/units to sit around and wait to do something. I have some bases in my sector, tons of satellites, mines, etc and in 150 turns not one of them have been used ever. All of the fighting has been me taking it to someone else. All of my temples with their great bonuses to fighting in my sectors have been worthless and have taken up space that I could have used for monoliths or something else of use. I think the best defense is a warp closer really. It's mobile, it can be retrofitted to an opener in a heartbeat, etc. Or, the ever popular 'doorway' ship with an opener and a closer with a repair bay on it.
