[@Wernher] i wasnt planning on "real" space combat because it would be boring as hell to play. Im fine with the super dense asteroids, rule of cool, but detonating several nukes in the cluster could still cause considerable damage to the base as the nearby roids are knocked out of orbit and possibly hit the base... which probably would not be fatal for the base but would drastically cripple its abilities while repairs are made. also, i was allowed to use Neutronium which apparently is a nuke the size of a grain of rice or sand or whatever... so i would say yes. esp because i plan on using them.
