supermassive moons

in order to really encourage harassing of mining and in order to make mining operations more strategic, i was thinking the devs should put "supermassive moons" in the game, just like normal moons like we currently have but bigger and about 3 miners can harvest from it at a time, so its like the same as having 3 normal moons in one. then maps can have a few of these moons scattered around and thus these supermassive moons will really be something to fight over, and really give the player harvesting them a massive boost

Cool idea! 

  I had wondered also about the possibility of fiddling with the moons to allow some more "interesting" tactics and economy variables.  That might also encourage a person to place multiple mining facilities at a single moon and create kind of a "Industrial Park" that is of even greater value.

  Neat!

Really like this, would increase competition with the enemy for the limited 'super massive moons'

That does sound really nice... eventually something to fight over

Oh no, we're about to get mooned by Optec!

I like your idea, deathincarn!

I like this idea, could make up for the lack of finate moons.
