Weapon of coice for glassing a homeworld?

MOO2 simply cut beam weapon strength in half for planet attacks. Missles and bombs were not reduced. I just swarmed the planets with missiles.

Anyway, it seems like a nice fix. But I'm not sure if it would be easy to do in SEIV.

It maybe easier to add special WP armor and double planetary weapon power.

You may only want to double the planetary napalm.
WP armor, ie total unit damage resistance, could be easily increased by raising damage resistance of WP computer. Only drawback is that it does not scale with WP size.

Actually facilities would not be vulnerable. They are destroyed according to the ratio of population that is killed off, so they are as strong or as weak as you make the population.
