Genesis component

[Atrocities]

Good idea.

I know that this is not what you had in mind, but it does the trick for now.'

What about such a component? Don't know if this was suggested before.

Point-Defence Facility. When built, protects a planet with PD cannons. The higher level of facility, the more shots it has.

BTW there can be facilities with other types of weapons. Or even mixed armed (PD + Missiles; PD + Direct Fire, etc.) facilities to protect small/medium planets. I know WPs do the same, but building a facility leaves cargospace for other use.

I tried it as a component; doesn't work. Unfortunately the atmosphere changing ability only works with facilities.

I have mistaken you. Sorry. I proposed a new facility (not component) which has nothing to do with Atmosphere Converters.

This is called a weapons platform.

Star Forming systems should eventually transform themselves into normal systems with a normal star and planets.

I am talking about a new facility (not unit) which can shoot at enemy ships/seekers/fighters/etc.

The highest level could have an unlimited number of shots, if you want it to make a big difference from a weapon platform.
