Hi all!!!
Pirates are a great challenge in this game and I like quite much the way they act, but wouldn't be fun that they have a secret planet or asteroid where they had their own production ship structures? So if you find and destroy it then they have to cease their attacks for a while (just until they build a new base somewhere randomly).

Another point is about shield planetary defenses, I think they should look better if they act just the same as shields do in spaceships, I mean, when you create a planetary shield then the planet will gain a shield defensive capacity number just like ships, which will decrease with attacks, graphicaly will look great if while you still have power on the shield nukes explote before reaching planet surface, or are absorved by the shield
