Once a TCU is in space, it is visible on the overview of every pilot in the system. Anyone with an Entosis Link who is a member of a player alliance can attempt to capture the TCU during its [[Vulnerability|Vulnerability Window]].

If a TCU is successfully captured, it enters a reinforcement period until a random time during its vulnerability window two days later. When the reinforcement period ends, a Capture Event will begin in the constellation where the TCU is located. 5 Command Nodes will spawn in random systems in the constellation. The Capture Event will continue until one side wins total control of the "tug-of-war." Each Command Node is worth 7% control, and the contest begins 60-40 in favor of the defender. This means that the owner can successfully defend the TCU if they capture 8 Nodes without giving up any to the attackers. Conversely, this means the attackers have to capture a minimum of 12 Nodes.

Each Command Node's capture time has a base value of 4 minutes, multiplied for the attackers by the [[Activity Defense Multiplier]] of the system in which the TCU is located. The Activity Defense Multiplier of the system in which the Command Node is located in has no effect.
