Defending HOP against the Xenon threat in my new HOP supporter play through for 2.0beta...

- a 9 defence disk water plant guards the Xenon gate, supported by 30 laser towers. It stocks 4K+ missiles so is a convenient place to resupply my destroyers

- so far I have 3 of these - a claimed Odysseus vanguard supported by 2 ex SCA behemoths

- a 20x hull parts complex tries to clear the HOP shipyard deficit of 80K units so it can complete its backlog of destroyers and constructors ^_^

- 4 L traders (3x Shuyaku vanguards, 1 captured Selene vanguard) are hauling the Hull parts - 6,280 units per run between them...

Finally, my personal ship is a captured nemesis sentinel, provided by a generous venturer ^_^

Why a water plant O.o ROFL :D how is the DP doing against the xenon and are they stopping to attack it ? I ask as our DP need to be attacked for it to retaliate :<

Currently I am boarding L-Sized Freighters just for fun and raising the Experience on my Marines. Maybe I will sell some later.

Building Stations to get a better income per hours.

Buildig more Destroyers for the upcoming Xenon threats and nuking some Xenon Stations of the Northern Xenon Sectorts.

Heh, it’s a water/energy plant to provide a cheap source of funds to restock missiles and also npc traffic for the xenon to attack, which causes the station to open fire when it gets hit

All of the laser towers are also set to defend the station - the xenon can’t resist tangling with them, and when they do, again the station opens fire

Finally, using the destroyer I try to bait any capships, then use the station as cover

Laser towers make the biggest difference I have found...
