(The other thread seems to have morphed)
Another thing I've noticed that I like a lot.
Two nights ago, I was involved in taking a planet from the enemy and then boosting up its DV after I took it. I noticed that during the boosting phase, the only missons I dre were Planetary Defense.
I don't know if this was an exceptional night, or if this has been the rule, but I really, really liked it. it was still easier to defend than it was to attack, but attackers with extended Assault missions weren't facing defenders with two-minute patrols.
If this is repeatable and intentional, I'd be interested in learning how it was done.
