a planet is massive, the shield is even bigger, it would take thousands, maybe even tens of thousands of ships to overload a planet shield. unlike ships or objects, a planet shield would have almost limitless energy, spies going in to sabotage the shield would be a realistic approach. one note i will say though, the planet shield is discovered way to early, and far to easy IMO a planet shield is........ extremely advance technology even by most scifi television series standards. in fact i can't think of a scifi program that had a planet shield.......... maybe because most scifi writers know that a planet shield is .......... fantasy is too insulting, but just plainly beyond the reach of most races capability. even the asgard never had one [;)] the ancients came the closest with a shield that surrounded there city....... but these were beings that built stargate technology, and cities with hyperscape engines......... pretty advance but still no planet shield! but seriously it was needed in this game to help balance, however the planet shield in this game is so easy and QUICK to build, and quite cheap aswell although again for balance "erik" may have done this intentionally.
