Planetary Defense Grids

[Gamazson]

I see no reason why weapon hard points can not be assigned to planet models, or a model placed within, then create a weapon that has a slower projectile speed and long range. Calibrate it to work only on player objects within 1 k of the planet (assuming these to be close orbit defense weapons)

Eppy's big missile idea is more problems then it is worth, but having guns to knock out any hostile person stupid enough to get that close to stronghold (Which any planet would be) should not be a problem to do.

But in all honesty it is probably better to leave any planetary defense grid stuff to roleplay. Then it can be tailored to ship type (Nukes for Bs, Guns for Fighters) and will not cause any in game problems. (Like nukes targeting starflyers)
