Just out of curiosity, are they joking or being serious when they are talking about deaths stars in the latest stream? http://sv.twitch.tv/uberchannel/b/337596251 If death stars are in (Im assuming they are activated metal planets or something?) then i want more info!
By the looks of the metal planet concepts, I think they will be death stars when powered up, not sure if they'll be capable of destroying a planet or just burning units on planets though.
The stream mentioned that they can atleast destroy astroids (They did also say that it wouldent be simple to use, might cost aloot or something), so i assume that they will do more then burn a surface area.
Maybe, but there is a huge size difference between a planet and an asteroid. Also, when I say scorch the surface, I mean in the same way as a small asteroid can scorch a continent.
