System fleets around planet

[SirEmi]

- Is is now possible to help someone defend a planet by dropping fleets in orbit, if they are in the same alliance.

- If a system has no fleets in orbit, an enemy can also deploy fleets to blockade a planet and prevent it from building a station if it doesn't have one already.

As you know, if the station is destroyed the planet becomes conquerable. Also, planet fleet support bonuses only work if there is a station in orbit to serve as command center and relay combat data between planet and fleets in orbit. So if a planet is under siege and has it's station destroyed, it would be normal for an attacker to blockade the system to prevent the construction of the orbital station.

I was wondering if it worked that way, thanks for the info.
