Defensive Structure with high Shield Power to use as fodder and give a higher chance of a draw. Only one small and one large shield dome can exist on each planet. Despite their description, and being called a "dome", domes do not offer any sort of overarching defensive ability. They act as a single unit of fodder. This greatly limits their usefulness, even if they do have a much better Shield Power-to-cost ratio than any other defense. Some players never even bother to build the one Small Shield Dome they are allowed, instead choosing to save up the 10,000 metal and crystal towards getting a Plasma Turret.

[edit] In-Game Description

Long before shield generators became integrated and portable, there were big old generators on the surface of planets. Those were able to span a huge shielding dome around the surface of the entire planet capable of absorbing huge amounts of energy when fired upon. Every now and then a smaller combat convoy is turned down by these shield domes. Using more advanced shield technology, these domes can be further increased, so their ability to absorb energy is even bigger. Only one of each shield domes can be built on a planet of course.
