Overview

The Large Shield Dome dramatically increases planetary survivability — a strategic upgrade that makes raids less profitable.

Special capabilities

Shield barrier / soak

Area Damage Absorption — major shared shield pool for the colony grid
Much larger shield and hull than Small Shield Dome
Cornerstone of mid/late defense stacks alongside anti-capital turrets

Strategic Use

Build before neighbors field consistent cruiser/battleship hits
Stack multiple domes where Defense Yard, Shield Technology, and Fortress Doctrine allow — each dome type has its own cap
Pair with EMP Emitter so batteries exploit suppressed attacker shields
