I don't know George, earthing a roof may act like a Shield but IMO could also make it a target, I had a friend with a gumtree beside the house 10 meters away, it got a hit and still destroyed his tv and other gear inside the house.
This house has barrier foil in all the walls, perhaps it helps protect electronics in the house? it certainly stops all mobile phone signals.
There were many trees here most of them near the house have been hit and removed, We have had up to 5 strikes within 300m of the house from 1 storm, bloody ironstone here.
you could have lightning rods around but from what i have seen it will hit anywhere, earth rods wont take it all around here.
