how about making bombs that are stonger than mirvs, for example nukes. and that if you fire 12 of those that all hit, it blows the whole planet apart or something like that. or like in star wars the laser from the death star(i think it was called) that blows planets up ? that would be great fun.
but make em really hard to get like 150 tech or something and make it take 2 mins to build each one or something. so they blown up planets in scenarios would come later on in game near the end of it. although maybe 200 tech would be better. great fun lol

that seems a wee bit excessive
and besides i think nuke bombs would be a little less powerful than mirvs which are fusion bombs, maybe antimatter bombs or something, more power but less of them can be launched, so if you are a good bomber you can level a planet a bit easier.

1 word....stupid
that would make bombing way to easy, and not to mention the fact that mirvs do enough damage as is. if anything, id like to see the damage of the mirvs reduced a tad. so if im working on a planet for 30 min to an hour, and sum n00b with a bomber frig comes along and wipes it, i dont have a buy a keyboard the next day from throwing it against the wall in frustration.

MIRV - multiple independently targeted reentry vehicle.
MIVR is a type of missile, not a warhead. MIVR is a missile that contains multiple warheads. When entering atmosphere missile splits up and warheads either target separate targets or detonated in a circular pattern over a large object like a city. Individual yield of the warheads is not very large usualy however together they produce effects greater then the sum of their yields.
There is a more powerfull bomb in the game already, which is going to be taken out btw. Its called Proton Cruise Missile. First 2-3 hits that manage to breake through the shields can destroy most troops and structures on the smaller planets.

Forseth thanks for the constructive critism. i.e stupid lol
When man can make spaceships that create wormholes. then surely he can build weapons of not only mass destruction. but also total destruction i should think, hence the reason for planet killers.

But it would piss of builders.
Just think oh I've built this nice planet...5 mins later it's nuked.
And as for SY or MOD planets if the oposition find out what planets are SY or MOD planets. You can forget about them they will be hit. (and you know people will find out by hook or by crook).
Having uber weapons that obitorate planets sounds a laugh, but you'll never get to use them we'll all be flying frigates.

If there was a weapon in the game that could destroy planets, the Metaverse would be empty within 24 hours.
THAT is the main reason we don't have a planet-destroying weapon.
