The dome does not fire — it is a shield barrier: it absorbs damage and protects the planet. Defense is static — it has no speed or cargo hold. "Weapon points" — one structure's contribution to combat power.

Calculator: defense versus ship

Pick a structure and a ship — we'll show the defense's effectiveness multiplier against that ship.

Requirements

To build this structure, you need to raise the following to the required level:

Defense is built on the planet (the same place as the fleet). Technologies are leveled up in the Laboratory — section Research.

Description

The danger of falling asteroids and space debris on the planet provoked the creation of a small shield dome. A large electromagnetic field around the planet, the shield is guaranteed to deflect asteroids falling on the planet. It also dampens the attacks of the attacking fleet. Later it was found that small shields do not provide adequate protection against enemy attacks on a large scale

Questions and answers

What is "Small Dome" in Xterium?
The danger of falling asteroids and space debris on the planet provoked the creation of a small shield dome. A large electromagnetic field around the planet, the shield is guaranteed to deflect asteroids falling on the planet. It also dampens the attacks of the attacking fleet.
Where to build "Small Dome"?
"Small Dome" is built on the planet after the required research. After a battle, defense partially rebuilds itself and does not turn into debris.
