Overview
The Orbital Refinery is a Realm 2 orbital platform for harvesting asteroid and related space nodes. It is an industrial hull — high cargo and harvest cycle — not a warship.
Special capabilities
On-site refining
- Processes orbital nodes with dedicated harvest speed / cycle (see catalog stats)
- Large cargo bay for long harvest runs
- Alliance resource boost when used in alliance-controlled space contexts
Protect Refineries: they are slow, valuable, and attractive raid targets while working a node.
Strategic Use
- Core of asteroid income after early Cargo / Recycler play
- Escort when operating near contested space
- Industrialist-focused empires get the most value from harvest fleets
