The Planet upgrade for defenses was kind of bleh for the cost. Why not make it so you are actually buying an extra mech slot and additional tonnage per drop ship or something like that.

Add to that cost attackers can upgrade their Dropships.

Give each planet a c-bill coffer payout as well as the MC payout.

Because being able to buy extra tonnage/mechs for a planet would be absolutely broken?

If everyone can do it, it is a toss of the dice. DO you do it or not? Spend the Cbills or not? As it stands right now, the "extra" defense slots on a planet" are really just a waste of cbills.

But everybody couldn't do it, you're talking about a system where only the people who hold the planet can activate it.

Buying extra tonnage is broken. It makes planets almost unrecapturable. Generating cbills for the team, getting extra cosumables, getting intel, choosing dropzone are good advantages skilled players can use.
