Planetary Shields

For a purely visual, updated and compatibility friendly version look here https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3037435877 Achievements will be disabled This mod is a standalone version of the planetary shields feature of the More Events Mod. Do not use it if you already use MEM. If you like this feature please show it by rating it up, even if you are using MEM instead of this standalone mod. Given enough presence in the workshop maybe Paradox may pick it up at some point and give us a better officially implemented system to work with than this workaround. Let us show them it does not always have to be Star Wars to be popular ;) The screenshots are from an earlier version. The shields still look the same, but the building's attributes are the same as in vanilla with two little changes: the building provides one defensive army and can be ruined by bombardement. The latter is needed as it would drag out wars for far too long as the AI is now also able to build shield generators. And they love doing so. Also there is an upgraded version you can get once you reach the highest techlevel. The graphical effects are meant to be seen but still not too intrusive to distract from or disable the view of the planet intself. The effects are animated, which means the screenshots do not really do them justice.
