Station Structures: Building Your Space Empire

Welcome, Commander! In this guide, we’ll walk you through the different structures you can build to grow your space empire. Whether you want to store more resources, build powerful fleets, or boost your economy, these structures will help you rule the stars!

 

Shipyard: Home for Your Fleets

A Shipyard is a place where you can transfer your Fleets, serving as a secondary Homebase. Once you transfer your fleets to the Shipyard, it becomes the base for that fleet, ensuring they return to the Shipyard after combat.

  • What Can You Do at a Shipyard?
    • Repair ships instantly
    • Recharge Capacitor energy
    • Replenish your Fleet with Natural resources and ISK
    • Keep up to 5 fleets at a time

Capturing a Shipyard: You’ll need to fight through Garrisons (600 squads) and Escorts (9,000 squads) to take control. Defeat them, reduce the Shipyard’s HP to zero, and it’s yours!

 

Trade Hub: Earn More ISK!

A Trade Hub increases your ISK income

  • Lv.1 Trade Hub → +200 ISK production
  • Lv.2 Trade Hub → +400 ISK production
  • Lv.3 Trade Hub → +600 ISK production
  • Lv.4 Trade Hub → +800 ISK production
  • Lv.5 Trade Hub → +1,000 ISK production

Note: You can build Trade Hubs only on Level 6 grids.

 

Harvest Array: More Resources, Faster!

Want to produce resources faster? Build a Harvest Array!

  • Lv.1 Harvest Array → +700 resource production
  • Lv.2 Harvest Array → +1,400 resource production
  • Lv.3 Harvest Array → +2,100 resource production
  • Lv.4 Harvest Array → +2,800 resource production
  • Lv.5 Harvest Array → +3,500 resource production

Note: You can build Harvest Arrays only on Level 7 grids. However, mining isn’t possible on them.

 

Ports: Expand Your Storage!

Ports are like giant space warehouses where you can store extra Components—important materials needed for upgrades and repairs.

  • Lv.1 Port → +500 Component storage
  • Lv.2 Port → +1,000 Component storage
  • Lv.3 Port → +1,500 Component storage
  • Lv.4 Port → +2,000 Component storage
  • Lv.5 Port → +2,500 Component storage

Note: You can build Ports only on Level 8 grids. The more you build, the more Component storage you’ll have!

 

 

Silo: Store More Resources!

A Silo boosts the amount of resources you can store. The higher its level, the greater the storage capacity!

  • Lv.1 Silo → +400,000 storage
  • Lv.2 Silo → +800,000 storage
  • Lv.3 Silo → +1,200,000 storage
  • Lv.4 Silo → +1,600,000 storage
  • Lv.5 Silo → +2,000,000 storage

Note: You can build Silos only on Level 9 grids.

 

 

Booster Array: Faster Stamina Recovery

Commanders need Stamina to keep leading fleets. A Booster Array helps you recover Stamina faster!

  • Lv.1 Booster Array → Stamina recovers 4 seconds faster.
  • Each level speeds up Stamina's recovery by another 4 seconds.

Note: Booster Arrays can only be built on Level 10 grids.

Building Limits & Headquarters Upgrades

Your Headquarters level determines what structures you can build and how many.

  • HQ Level 7 → Build Trade Hubs, Harvest Arrays, Ports, and Silos (Max: 8 structures total)
  • HQ Level 9 → Build Booster Arrays (Max: 3 structures total)
  • Total Structures Limit → You can build up to 10 structures across all categories.

Note: Once you build a structure, the grid loses its original resource production, so choose wisely!

 

Final Tips for New Commanders!

  1. Plan Your Grid Usage – Don’t just build randomly! Make sure to balance storage, production, and economy.
  2. Upgrade Your Headquarters – Higher levels let you build more advanced structures.
  3. Defend Your Shipyards – If an enemy captures them, you lose a key advantage.
  4. Stack Multiple Structures – The effects of multiple Ports, Silos, and Arrays can be combined for even greater benefits!

Now you’re ready to build your empire! Command wisely, and conquer the galaxy!
