In Star Wars "Fortress Class" planets such as Mon Calimari, Coruscant, and Kuat have multiple defensive systems for thir ptotection against who ever is playing Nepolian that particular week. These include the following:

Planataty shield generators: a very large and very poweful deflector shield (both concusion and energy) that will take days for large fleets to penetrate and forever for small ones.

Golan Defense platforms: (Golan Arms Inc. makes the best platforms, so good infact that they put all other companies out of buisiness) think ISD only in a disk like shape, and not being able to move under its own power. They have their own shields, hundreds of turbolasers, ion cannons, missile launchers and anti-fighter guns. These are litterally castles in the sky.

Planatery Artillery: Planat Defender Tubolasers and Planet Defender Ion cannons. Each only takes 2 hits to kill an ISD. the Ion cannon, natuarally disables, the Turbolaser, punches a hole right through. Fortress class planets have hundreds of these weapons.

all of these wonderfull things are standard on Imperial fortress planets.

Mine Fields: The New Republic has added space mines to the Fortress inventory. Proton torpedoes with manuvering thrusters instead of engines. extra room is filled with more proton scattering fun! extra, at no cost to you, our wonderfull invader (well at great cost actually, great cost in pain;). We've seen that 2 can overpower military grade shields and that another 3 can disable C&C (the bridge) and the engines. these mo fo's are not to be taken lightly.

Now you all know more about Star Wars planetary defenses, and may the gods help any fedie, cardasian, dominion, romulan, or borg seek to take a Fortress class planet, cuz no one else will be able too!
