A minor note about suggestions. Please keep all of them focused around current defence, and not new structures.
Stage 2 of the planetary system changes will include more structures to enhance and build upon the new system put in place. For now, however, I'd rather concentrate on the current issues and deployment of Stage 1 (which is basicly the backbone and migration of systems over to it).

Idea:
Do a percentage of maximum armor damage to every ship in the area every time damage is calcuated
Ramp up that percentage over time

Great. Now ICC and Kluth have advantage over UGTO.
Shields have less hp than armor=ICC takes less damage than UGTO, while still being able to activate defence mode or rotate shields
Kuth armor worse than human armor=Kluth takes less damage than UGTO, while still having a superior regeneration rate

Damage is currently inflicted as a straight damage-per-tick, with no regard to HP.
However, this does mean that ICC and K'luth have an advantage over UGTO anyway, since shields have a higher regeneration rate and K'luth have AHR.
However, UGTO have the advantage in terms of raw firepower at close range, and K'luth must remain visible in order to count as contesting the planet, meaning they must also remain vulnerable to attack.

We just made a change to the way defence bases apply their damage.
Previously we had the damage shared between all parties up to 5, this meant two players shared the damage equally.
Now, for every player near the planet, you will take 5% less damage, up to a total of 50%.

does the location of the Defense bases matter now like before,
and maybe you guys could revert back to the 1,2,3 def bases as you said the current structure is pointless
def base 1. 100% of current calculated damage
def base 2. +50% of def base 1
def base 3. +100% of def base 1
also how are depots handled now would like to see them able to repair 1 ship for each depot a player builds instead of having them group up and repair one player/npc.
also Depots are considered def bases

Coolcool we did have 3 ships and a number of ai there
didnt know it was calculated like that.
there was an AD BombDread and Bomber Friggy. of the three the bomber dread seamed to take the most damage.
