Onyx Hive Shipyards Impervious To Missile Attacks?

Published on Sunday, July 17, 2022 By PaulLach In Galactic Civilizations IV

I am a big fan of missile attacks and have used them extensively.  One thing that I have noticed and do not understand is that Onyx Hive shipyards appear to be impervious to missile attacks.  I have attacked the shipyards of many other civilizations with missiles and the missiles have done damage, but not those of the Onyx Hive.

The first screen snapshot shows that I have 2 fleets next to an Onyx Hive shiyard.  It also shows that I have used my missle attack for this turn for one of those fleets.  The second screen snapshot shows that I have also used my missile attack for this turn for the second fleet.  The third screen snapshot shows that the Onyx Hive shipyard has not lost any hit points as a result of my missile attacks.

Questions:

  1. Is there something we can do (research, etc.) to make our shipyards impervious to missile attacks?
  2. Is there something about the Onyx Hive civilization that makes their shipyards impervious to missile attacks?
  3. Is this a bug?
