Defenses

Defenses

Defenses protect colonies against raids, sieges, and large-scale invasions.

Unlike ships, defenses:

• Are stationary
• Cannot be deployed offensively
• Provide Rapid Fire advantages against specific ships
• Scale heavily with Realm progression

Defenses are divided into:

• Turrets – Direct damage structures
• Advanced Batteries – Specialized anti-role counters
• Shield Structures – Damage absorption and survivability
