I have a small tower that I only online for compression and reprocessing.
CCP can pry it from my cold dead fingers.
I have no intentions of anchoring a citadel in its place. |

I have no intentions of anchoring a citadel in its place. Well you won't have a choice eventually as POS modules will be made entirely useless once structures are made to replace them, in your case the industrial array, this isn't an optional change its an eventuality
I love it when people try to explain industry topics to me 
The original point being, there is little benefit in a much more costly citadel at this time, compared to a small POS. Use a small POS until such time that there is a better alternative ... and until about a year after that when small POS are likely to be removed (I estimate early 2018). |

Use a small POS until such time that there is a better alternative ... and until about a year after that when small POS are likely to be removed (I estimate early 2018). 2% better refine, and half the fuel costs of a small POS. I'll take the citadel thanks. Damn why don't you read what he said, you only online the damn thing to do your refining or compressing then it goes offline again, it is much cheaper than a Citadel with its refining module online, because you get a hell of a charge for putting it online.
Also paying at least 8 times more for the structure for that 2% better refining, and that's before fuel is considered.
As for fuel, my small POS uses 1 and sometimes 2 fuel blocks per reprocessing session.
If I really want that 2% more, I'd use an existing freeport citadel and pay the very reasonable tax instead.
Once the mining structures are released in the winter, this strategy may change. |
