Ever heard of the the Almighty OSL?

The Orbital Satilite Laser.

Its basically an Orbital Cannon (or Free Roaming Cannon) that typically fires a large laser that is used to track distant , planetary / Ship Targets.

These OSLs take a large time to recharge and can oonly target slow moving objects (I.E. Stations, Dreadnoughts) and can do a fairly large ammount of dammage.

There are 2 Types of OSL: POSL and ETAOSL.

POSL - Planetary Orbital Satillite Laser

This laser is in orbir around a planet and targets Enemy Infantry on a planet, the Equivilant dammage of a Hardened Infantry, and takes 2 minutes to reload after each shot.


ETAOSL - Enemy Target and Aqusition Orbital Satilite Laser

The laser can either be a small , Free Roaming laser cannon, or an Orbital Cannon. It takes 3 minutes to recharge and deals 50,000 Dammage, the Equivilant of an Armor on a ship. Its range is 1000gu, and if its Free Roaming (controlled), it can move 5gu/sec.

Those are the 2 basic types, feel free to add on or take away.

not a bad idea, the planets needs some kind of Defence...

Would these Orbital weapons be like those from RTS space game Hegemony? Where you built this weapon, and of course, is connected to the planet... it would Move along the planet till its on the side where the incoming hostiles are coming from and starts shooting.

If you played hegemony, you'd know what i mean... Those are cool
and, they can be destroyed when targeted...

... I still love Hegemony's way of Capping a planet, It took time.
like... Shooting down on the planet Wiping out Millions and Billions of popultion until its Moral reaches less then 10% so it'll be converted to your side... well there is SPY operations that could be used to lower moral... But Killing mass number was just Sick heh... ships making little explosion all over the planet's surface... Uhm i'll shut up now...
