Combat Capabilities

Sphereship is not the simple combat vessel. It can deploy indestructible special escort fleet on entering battle.
Escort fleet is called "Weapon Portal" and each of portals can attack individually.

This function is can upgraded by additional technology research.

Also has 1000 life count(revives) at default setting.

In default configuration, Sphereship has 400 million hull HP
and 95 % damage reduction with 1000 life counts. Effective hull HP is 8 trillion.

Construction Process

Sphereship is can constructed as megastructure.
on complete, megastructure is replaced by actual ship.
Only one can exist in the galaxy.
if this ship is destroyed / disbanded, you can build new one.
In current version, Sphereship and Portal is designable,
but having some ship designer UI issues.To get the design screen to display properly,
you need a mod such as UI Overhaul Dynamic.
(There are too many armament slots, so the display will still be broken.)
I recommend to use with powerful mods (ACoT, SBTG, Giga etc.)

Balancing

No. But I don’t use complete invincibility and forced instakills on fleet battle.
System destruction feature still can delete fleet on target system. I need to rework this.
