okay, we have finally managed to release our new Starbases to the public, and now they are for sale! first come, first serve, don't miss out on this new station
Viper class Starbase
Okay, after several years of development, the Andmerican Navy is proud to announce its newest addition to the Andmerican Fleet, the Viper. It is a recently unveiled starbase, designed for optimum usage in many ways. The station is a huge multi-use structure, used by our fleet for housing of both personnel and spacecraft. It is also very well armed, with 47 Heavy plasma cannons, 100 light plasma beams, 74 Point defense plasma guns, and 1 Heavy particle Cannon, based at the center, which fires off a single energy shot that is extremely long range and powerful. The Viper is also capable of housing hundreds of fighters and even allows docking of capital ships along its outer borders. The Viper also has its own engine for positioning its particle cannon and movement, and it also equipped with a class D-9 hyperdrive, which allows it movement to other systems if it be necessary.
Here are the Viper’s specifications:
75 miles in diameter
50 miles in height (most of this is nothing but the prongs used to guide the particle cannon’s beam)
Capable of housing:
200,000 personnel, including all technicians and starbase commanders
10,000 fighters
Up to 300 Capital ships may dock with the outer edge of the ring

The Starbase is also protected by:
1 Class A Plasma shield
3 Class D Ion shields
10 meters of Titalium Armor

The starbase is powered by 3 different Plasma Generators and 1 Fusion generator. Due to the large amount of generators, the station may lose up to 2 generators and still operate at maximum efficiency and be able to fire Particle Cannon. If 3 generators are destroyed, the station will either have to shut down its Particle Cannon or power down multiple systems if it must fire the Particle Cannon. Each generator is heavily protected in its own Chamber, which is almost impossible to destroy unless a an attacking ship fires of a main cannon and directly hits the chamber.

Inside the Starbase in the Particle Cannon charging chamber, is a device that, when exploded, will damage an amount of the firing mechanisms, causing the weapons to overheat and begin to grow in energy rapidly, eventually causing the beam to explode, completely destroying the base as a failsafe to protect it.

There are currently 3 of these bases orbiting Andrixa, but we have just recently completed a large number of these bases, with some additional enhancements, such as thicker armor, and a more robust power generator. These bases are selling for 300 billion credits a unit, and we only have a limited amount, so first come, first serve!

note: it is a far more robust station than what we originaly had, it has twice as much armor and power generators, so that should make you happy

Actualy, it's probably a bit expensive. Hw much are you asking?

though i wouldn't mind one, but i've got the Devastator that's capable of handling my fleet
