NOTE – Asteroid Forts may only be constructed in systems with suitable asteroids. By default, single star systems will have asteroids, anomaly systems may have asteroids (check with SM), binary and trinary systems will not have asteroids, starless nexus and nebula will not have asteroids.

NOTE – Maintenance Cost is calculated as a percentage of the total hull cost of the base and must be paid each turn.

• Freighters built with more than 20% military systems (non Ic or H) must be built as warships
• Warships with more than 33% H/Q look like freighters
• Bays (Hb, Bs, Bf, BL) are limited to 1 per 30 HS (FRU) except on Fast/Base hulls
• Launch Bays (BL) must be on a ship 31+ HS

Arc Restrictions

• Turret - no modifiers to LRW or SRW rating
• Side Arc – SRW/LRW Rating is divided by 1+(2/Agility)
• Forward or Rear Arc – SRW/LRW Rating is divided by 1+(4/Agility)
