The mechanics of capturing and defending structures is based around the use of an [[Entosis Link]].

To capture or disable a structure, attackers must first use an Entosis Link on the structure during its [[Vulnerability Window]]. Once the link has completed its first cycle, the capture process begins and the alliance owning the structure is notified of the attack. Once the entosis link has been active and uncontested for a certain amount of time, the structure enters reinforce mode and a reinforce timer begins. There is no speed benefit to having more than one entosis link active on a structure, the time to capture a structure is the same whether the attacker has 1 or 100 links active. If both the defender and attacker have an entosis link active on the structure, all capture progress is paused. If only the defender has an entosis link active, the timer counts up towards its starting value. A structure that was attacked but not fully captured will slowly regen; eventually the timer will return to full.

To capture or disable a structure, attackers must first use an Entosis Link on the structure during its [[Vulnerability Window]]. Once the link has completed its first cycle, the capture process begins and the alliance owning the structure is notified of the attack. Once the entosis link has been active and uncontested for a certain amount of time, the structure enters reinforce mode and a reinforce timer begins. The timer depends on the type of structure attacked and the ADM of the system.

The base timer for each type of structure is:

* Structure (I-Hub, TCU, Station): 10 minutes

* Command Node: 4 minutes

* Station Service (fitting, cloning etc.): 4 minutes.

ADM is explained below.

There is no speed benefit to having more than one entosis link active on a structure, the time to capture a structure is the same whether the attacker has 1 or 100 links active. If both the defender and attacker have an entosis link active on the structure, all capture progress is paused. If only the defender has an entosis link active, the timer counts up towards its starting value. A structure that was attacked but not fully captured will slowly regen; eventually the timer will return to full.

The reinforce timer length will be approximately 48 hours. Once the timer expires, command nodes will begin to spawn in the same constellation as the captured structure.
