- "God, from the mount of Sinai, whose gray top Shall tremble, he descending, will himself, In thunder, lightning, and loud trumpets' sound, Ordain them laws."
– John Milton, "Paradise Lost, Datalinks"
Orbital Defense Pod is a base facility in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.
Strategy[]
50% of all missiles will get destroyed if they try to attack ANY base. To stop a Planet Buster, an Orbital Defense must be sacrificed. It's too bad that these become available so late in the game; many games are over by the time they appear.
