Yeah, but with a time and/or resource penalty to reflect the extra effort involved in moving around within a planet's atmosphere. Either that or require that a ship has a small "atmospheric maneuvering" component to allow it to get into and out of orbit.

Maybe planets with no atmos could have an advantage here? A use for those tiny moons at Last...
