Outposts serve two purposes:

  1. They are a station that pilots can dock at or launch from.
  2. Miners can offload He3 at outposts.

They are primarily used to secure the outer boundaries of the team's territory. They are placed in key sectors which block the enemy's access to the sectors behind, and/or are placed more offensively to increase your team's access to the enemy sectors.

Since interceptors can not ripcord across the map, outposts are essential for team's that use interceptors so pilots can dock at one station and transfer to a different outpost where they're needed.


Station statistics

Information taken from CC_03. Values are representative only (many factions have had their stations individually tweaked for balance).

Exceptions

GigaCorp

All GigaCorp minor stations have light base armour class, and thus can be damaged by any weapon.

Iron Coalition

All Iron Coalition minor stations have heavy base armour class, and thus can not be damaged by galvs (and take less damage from other anti-base weapons).
