Not only do the System Shields stop warp point openers and closers. It stops star destroyers, storm creators, black hole creators, nebula destroyers (although if there is a nebula in the system you couldn't have a planet there anyways unless you mod the map). etc... Basically any and all stellar manipulation it stopped with the device.

I think it stops nebula creators, not nebula destroyers.

Slightly OT; why are nebula and black hole creators that much better than star destroyers? Because they leave the system unusable to your enemy?

They eliminate the asteroids as well, so no one can re-create the planets that were in the system. The black hole also servers as an annoyance/roadblock.

Actually, nebulae creators dont get rid of the asteroids. They are still there in the nebula. One interesting thing is you can still remote mine them if you know where they are, or can find them in the soup.

So they are still there, just invisible? That's awesome.

RE: The astoriods in a Nebula
If they are the damaging type, does the damage still take place?
I sorta doubt it but could you imagine if it did?
