Splad Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 you have to disable the station and then dock with it right when it gives an SOS signal. it's hard to do as they have a tendency to explode before you can dock. not that hard though, i've done it plenty of times. did i mention that it says this on page 66 of the manual? planetary bases can not be captured yet, give SC enough time and he'll probably add it, but i wouldn't nag him about it.

q_dragon Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 When we warp to the station should we cloak first? I'm asking this because I have dropped out of warp and have been obliterated before I could do anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixef Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 I allways cloak before i jump to an enemy station. But I read in some thread that you can capture it, if you find its blindspot - an attack vector where the stations PTA-system can't reach your CC. I've never taken the time to find any, so I never attack an enemy station unless my CC is a Battlecruiser or bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
