Taking over enemy bases

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.

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.

In BC3K you cannot capture (take over) starbases.

As for learning how to capture starstations, I performed the following procedure:

  1. click on the search function (located at the top of every forum page, to the left of the login or my profile button),
  2. type 'station capture' into the 'Search Words:' field, and
  3. select the options to


    1. 'Match any of the search terms above.'
    2. 'Search All Open Forums'
    3. 'Subject Only'
    4. 'Any Date'

I spent (approximately) half an hour scanning the 52 matches in the search results and found these 7 threads about capturing starstations:
