I love the Ion Cannon, but I don’t use it, I just defend against it.
It sure is frustrating when the enemy just fires the ion cannon on my base repeatedly instead of trying to fight my units.
Attacking the base is definitely a part of the game I enjoy, but sometimes it feels impossible to defend from certain things.
What if one of the commanders had the ability to put a temporary shield over the base?
Maybe if Kane builds his Oblisk of light directly
next to the base, the power in the Obelisk is re-directed to a red shield surrounding the base.
I really think something needs to be added to help defending players protect from these brutal ion cannon base attacks.

I absolutely agree. Pretty much any unit in this game can attack the base, but there is no defense mechanism. Seems like an oversight in the game's design to me.
