> a way of attacking CC that totally bypasses any rings of defensive turrets

There already is a way of doing that. Use the appropriate L15 (and now L16) General.

On the A-1 Base the Resource Convertor shows up in the [Buildings][Defense] Tab, on Page 2.

On the Main Base the Resource Convertor is gone, and it you try to look around then the Anti-Tank Turret disappears. Upon further hunting about you lose the "<" and :>" and more Guns start to disappear each time you go back to the [Defense] Tab.

I suggest that it is a "Defense Weapon" and not an "Offense Weapon" (brought to Battle). Resources are drained too slowly to be attacked with one Marine.

Nich says:

"The Orbital Strike cannon is a powerful weapon that floats above the resource converter to protect the base, but consumes 250,000 of each resource to take part in a battle. If the resources aren't available, the cannon will lay dormant." .
