The Captains Log 25/2
Solar System: Unknown
Starbase: Gaia
The POS’s are up and the reactions are underway and money should start flowing into my pockets soon enough. It was a bit of a hassle to get the POS’s up, not because it was difficult to do so but because it was so time consuming in getting the modules there as I had to haul in some 500k m3 of assets into my wormhole and then getting all the modules up and running which took a lot of time. All up I have anchored
3 x Control towers
3 x Corporate hanger arrays
12 x Silos
4 x Coupling arrays
2 x Simple reactors
2 x Complex reactors
1 x Ship maintenance array
9 x shield harders
60 x defence modules.
It was also made longer by the fact that I can only anchor a single tower per day. However It is all over now, so all I have to worry about is hauling minerals and fuel.
At the moment I only have a couple of days worth of moon minerals to react so for the next couple of weeks the POS’s will be operating on a shoestring budget as I get Fullerides, sell, them buy more minerals and react them together and then get more fullerides to sell and buy fuel. Once I have enough ISK to buy a stockpile of minerals and fuel the whole operation will run allot smoother without constant attention from me.
When I first started colonising this system it had plenty of combat sites in it. However, a team of five Drakes has emptied the system of all the combat sites leaving behind only the ladar and gravimetric sites, which is sort of disappointing as I wanted to shoot some sleepers. On the plus side scanning is fair bit easier with out all that clutter. The grav sites though will come into use as I plan on building some Battleships in here to knock any intruders around. Using battleships will give me a large advantage as only Battlecruisers or small will be able to enter my system.
Here are some pretty pictures of my POS’s.
Here we have a image from which the positions of all three of my POS’s can be seen.
Gaia, as you can see is located within the planetary rings of is planet making for a nice scene.
Terra Mater overlooking the gas giant. Gaia is located on the left hand side of the rings.
Ninhursag and the moon it orbits.
