Could we have upgrades like heroes do? That would let us have upgraded Golans at important worlds, while less-important worlds have less-powerful versions.


You should get that already. The Golan levels that you can build should be linked to the colony size. If you only have a level 2 colony, you can't build the bigger Golans.

Sorry, I wasn't too clear. I meant that you could start with a Golan I, but then upgrade it to Ia, then to Ib if it was at an important world that only has a level 2 starbase.

Well, since AFAIK the "reinforced" Golans are technically PR fanon, PR can do whatever he wants to them.

They were necessitated by using a fully upgraded Skirmish, so yes, I made them up.

Well since you made them up, buff them! Letting them have some anti-fighter weaponry would be a start.

I think PR was just making them more powerful without making an 'ultra-Golan' that has absolutely no relation to the one in the campaign other than the model.
Unless Golan upgrades are implemented, I'd rather stick to what's there.

<DevXen> Today I was at the store and saw a Darth Vader action figure that said "Choking Hazard." It was great.

I know, its just that I don't think they have enough firepower. Most annoying is their complete lack of any anti-fighter defenses. Since I'm assuming the role of a reinforced Golan is to act as a base where building an entire space colony and attendant spaceports would be cost-inefficient, giving it the ability to not be slowly chopped to pieces by a few squadrons of fighters shouldn't be too much to ask.

I figure 10 laser turrets at level one, 10 laser turrets and 5 heavy laser turrets at level two, and 20 laser turrets and 20 heavy laser turrets at level three would do nicely, especially since at level three Scimitars and K-Wings start showing up.

The thing is, in Skirmish, you can station anything up to the size of a cruiser above it to deal with bombers. I don't really want to start giving it all sorts of speculative armaments.
