Can someone please explain how a POS in reinforced mode can be finally destroyed or saved after the reinforced timer reaches zero.
Thanks

1. Pos is shot till it enters Reinforced mode
2. Defender better have put enough stront before teh shield hit 50% otherwise so they can time the pos to come out in their prime. At 25% shield,pos hits reinforced
3. When it comes out of reinforced, thats when the real fight happens. Either the attacker turns up to kill it or admits they totally wasted their time by not destroying the pos.
Basically, when a pos leaves reinforced, it forces teh defender to defend it otherwise the attacker can blow it up. It forces teh attacker to attack it or the defender can repair it.
If either are missing, the other side wins. If both are missing, the pos slowly regens shield and at 50% shield, it can be re-stronted.

when the timer reaches zero the pos can be re targeted and shot till it dies, when the shield is above 50% more stront can be placed in the tower so to save a pos after it comes out of reinforced you need to rep it, or wait ages till you can put more stront in

I think I get it,
so the attackers have to destroy the pos before the pos sheilds hits 50%.
The defenders can try to rep it up or defend the pos after it comes out of reinforced mode.
50% shield is the key to the pos survival

The inital attack is very rarely defended by most corps/alliances since teh attacker can chose terms of that engagement most of the time.
Once shields are below 50%, pos cannot be "timed" or stronted. This means that a clever attacker who keeps shields below 50% and above 25% can manipulate the timing. E.G If the defenders put 6 hours of stront, then the attackers can "trap" this 6 hours worth in the pos and basically play a eve poker to see if the stront manager was bluffing or not with regards to exit timing.
Anyhow usually, 90% of the time, the attacker just shoots pos till its hits 25% then all the "stront" or "timer" ticks away for everyone to see. When timer counts down to 0, pos if freely available to be shot by all. It can be re-timed or re-stronted when its shields hit 50%.
Idea is that the attaker has to attack a pos twice. Once at the attackers terms, and once at the defenders (stront timer) terms.
