Bars are shown relative to the strongest structure of its class (Hammer). Defense is static — it has no speed or cargo hold. "Weapon points" — one structure's contribution to combat power.

Effectiveness against fleets

"Rock-paper-scissors": a structure has its own effectiveness multiplier for each ship type. ×2…×5 — how much harder it hits a favorable target; ×0.5 — an unfavorable one. On top of that, combat applies rapidfire ×1.5 (a separate multiplier, it is not multiplied).

"Rapidfire" is a combat mechanic of the engine. More details — section Combat system.

Calculator: defense versus ship

Pick a structure and a ship — we'll show the defense's effectiveness multiplier against that ship.

Requirements

To build this structure, you need to raise the following to the required level:

Defense is built on the planet (the same place as the fleet). Technologies are leveled up in the Laboratory — section Research.

Description

If you doubt the ingenuity of human thought, look at the FH Battleship. If you think humanity cannot surpass itself, look at the DH Hammer. This complex combines the greatest advances in planetary defense ever created. Its modular design provides formidable protection and unmatched firepower. It carries two of the most destructive weapons available: the PL-49 heavy plasma launcher and the latest GR-10 heavy gravity cannon. It is the only weapon capable of effectively resisting armadas of FH Battleships.
