Bars are shown relative to the strongest structure of its class (Guardian). 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

The DL Guardian is most effective against the Cruiser class fleet. Installation does not require much energy. And the production process is so simple that it can be organized in a matter of days. To do this, you need to have a small amount of resources and some deuterium. This is quite convenient at the initial stages of development, since it allows you to quickly and inexpensively organize the basic defense of the colony
