Not only no, but if enemy infantry are standing underneath it (not just inside it), they will be protected as well.

tried and true tactic utilized by the minmatar...
Common Sense and Logic are 2 things you have to forget when posting on these forums.

There is some damage, but very miniscule in comparison due to two factors.
1. The MCC has a kitten ton of EHP as a buffer. So much so that the damage dealt with the OS is not noticeable at all.
2. The OS that we have right now are only made by small turrets in ships that are only the size of a destroyer (slightly bigger than a frigate) in space. The Warbarge is also utilizing small turret for this.
However, CCP will one day in the future introduce larger strikes all the way up to the Dreadnaughts. We don't have OS strikes from the following turret sizes... yet:
1. Medium Turrets - Fit only on Cruisers and larger.
2. Large Turrets - Fit only on Battleships and larger.
3. XL Turrets - Fit only sub capital ships like the dreadnaughts.
Once ammunition for OS is made available for larger-sized turrets then we might see MCC being blown out of the sky.... with the rest of the map being glassed over.
OK, CCP. When are knives finally going to be improved?

Thematically this seems so backwards.
We have a space ship that could shoot their space ship out of the sky.
But instead, we're going to land some infantry dudes, use our space ship for orbital strikes on THEIR infantry dudes, so we can get control of some land based cannons to shoot up at their space ship. |

Well whenever we have a spare Orbital that we can't use on anyone, we're winning & the enemies basically redlined....
I wait till they're MCC is about to be hit by the last missle & drop the Orbital on the MCC - So when it says "VICTORY" & they're MCC is exploding it looks like the Orbital blew it up, looks epic & kinda throws it in they're face that they lost. |

Thematically, if you read the novel "Templar One" you would assume that there are multiple layers of planetary defense grids preventing a ship in high orbit from directly interacting with the surface without some outside help.
It's a game... it doesn't always have to make sense.

The idea is to have a cannon that can one shot a dreadnought in siege mode with a gigantic cooldown. Imagine being able to nuke a capital ship every 5 minutes.
Plus, the capitals can glass a planet easily from space, but to use the resources, they need boots on the ground. If you want to take something, at the end of the day, you need the grunts. |
