Shipyard Properties

• A shipyard is built on generic asteroids.
• The shipyard allows for the production of capital ships, enormous Battle Stations that usually demonstrate the power of a team.
• Among capital ship research and equipment, the shipyard also allows the ship speed research, useful to every ship of the team.
• The shipyard can be upgraded to a Drydock, for higher technology levels.

Using the shipyard

• The shipyard usually serves a team for assaults against well-defended bases, since the missiles of missile frigates and cruisers are stronger, the ships are more difficult to destroy, and the skycap turrets inflict a lot of damage to enemy ships.
• Capital ships are also used for defense, since ships like destroyers can prevent a few ships from entering an aleph by killing them from afar (provided he can see them), as well as escort important fleets, just like devastators can do.
• Carriers can be used as reload stations to small and medium-class ships, and assault ships are used as stealth moving teleport receivers.
• The last use of capitals is in multi-team games. They are often used in 4-team games, where the Belter SY rush is most effective. Indeed, multi-team games mean much larger maps, less players per team, and a greater scattering of every team. Capitals can therefore pass through the map, leaving only chaos in their flightpath.
