As I've understood these are needed 1 per hour to have a pos in 0.5 and above. But how do you acquire these charters? What do they cost?

I know they're being given as agent rewards now, but other than that, I'm not sure.

I dont think they will come down in price, if you look its the NPC market thats selling them not the players.

Not seen it mentioned - but is it also only 1 every 2 hours for Medium POS and 1 every 4 hours for Small POS?

These are offered as rewards by agents and in quite large numbers as well, so prices on markets will come down a lot when supply passes the demand.

50k times 168 hours in a week = 8.4mil per week -------------------------------------------------------------------------

The only players that could possibly justify this expense are those whom have a ton of ISK already, or are mission runners by trade, and want to try out a high security POS for the lab and factory options available.
I am taking into account the 300% increase in Control Tower price from the npc merchants that has taken effect. If the Control Tower prices were the same as before RMR, then it would be worth looking into.
Hopefully the costs involved will come down soon. Kyrmius ...Just an old Matari... |

Thank you kindly - but that does seem very odd. The consumption of all other requirements is every 2 hours for Medium and 4 hours for Small - so why is Starbase Charters different?
Is that as intended I wonder? The patch notes weren't exactly clear

Actually robotics is also 1 for all. It's because the fuel usage is based on the large tower, and divided by two for the medium and again for the small (rounding up). -- Lyrus Associates is recruiting |

Ah, TY - that clears it all up. The POS guide, whilst otherwise extremely good didn't make that clear and, not having run one yet, I hadn't found out the truth. I had determined that usage was every 1 hour (L), 2 hours (M) & 4 hours (S), but actually it's every hour, but half amounts and quarter amounts - with round-ups.
Thanks again

The Starbase charters are a small price to pay for the ability to save 20mill in minerals when constructing a 100mill battelship in a large ship construction yard.
Clearly you have to be dedicated to battleship construction to make it pay for the tower, modules and fuel but ultimately I think there is profit to be made.

Medium and small POS used to use fuel every 2 and 4 hours respectively before the Cold War patch. Afterwards the amount used was cut down but useage is now hourly. Looks like your POS guide is *very* old :P

Which is of course the technical explanation. From the RP point of view, it can be explained for the leases by the fact that you are paying to occupy that moon, not for the size of tower you put there - in the same way you pay the same for a parking space whether you're parking a skoda or a ferrari.

A good guess would be "whichever corp owns the stations they're mostly being sold at."
