'Opportunity Fire' for Sattelites & WPs

[TM]

Okay, I like the idea of ‘supercharged’ WP and Satellite weapons. As far as the cost question goes, perhaps a series of ‘Energy Grid’ facilities could be added to one of the research areas (Physics?) that each increase the range of direct fire WP and orbital weapons by +1.

The main goal here is to give the AI better defensive capability during tactical combat, so whatever the solution is the AI needs to be changed in order to use it. From that perspective the ‘Opportunity Fire’ solution is by far the easiest to implement. I think the PD cannons already use this method.
