Also they could be used to guard anomalies as others have said. 2.) The specific missions for spies on a planet e.g. Information gathering, technology theft, fermenting insurection, sabatage. 3.) Weapons at or near the top of a tech tree that can a.) dest
Ok well I have a few suggestions although I’m a bit late to the table with them.

Should be able to destroy any planet and replace it with some asteroids you can mine. This way it would allow you to convert unusable planets into a resource. 2 – A Super Nova Missile; The ultimate
