Large POS's are strongly recommended in W-space. Small ones or even Medium ones are very easy to attack and take down. Most of people don't bother with Large ones.

Large POS's are strongly recommended in W-space. Small ones or even Medium ones are very easy to attack and take down. Most of people don't bother with Large ones. It takes too much effort to bring a large POS down, it's a logistical nightmare, but that doesn't mean people don't do it. It is quite common for corporations to attack other people in W-Space for isk and loot. Even the best defence won't keep people from destroying your POS, if they are ready to do what it takes. Having a good setup however will decrease the chance of getting invaded and will probably save your assets. This is EvE and you always need to be prepared for the worse. Keep that in mind.

[[Image:~~Pos_ships~~.jpg|border|left|250px]]Once you've got all of this, scan your way out to K-space, get Your hauler ready, scan Your system multiple times to make sure there are no new incoming wormholes, and make sure that you are actually alone in the system. Once you are ready, jump in the hauler, anchor the POS, online it as soon as possible, make sure You have enough fuel to run it for at least a day and a significant amount of Strontium. Once the shields are up and running, You're fairly safe. Next thing you need to do is set up the guns, ECM, warp disruptors and everything else You've planned. Start moving in the rest of POS modules you wish to have there, and start moving in ships. Always have a spare scanning ship in the hangers, You never know when You'll need it.

Don't, and I really cannot stress this enough, leave any ships floating out in space. It will only cause You trouble, provide intel to hostiles, and provide opportunities for a corp thief. There is no reason to leave ships floating in space. If you ran out of space in Your ship array, anchor a new one, or reconsider the usefulness of the ships you own, and take some of them out.
