Structures

Control Towers

Control towers are the cornerstone of any POS setup. The choice of tower and size will determine how much fuel you use per month and how much PG/CPU you have for onlined (active) structures. Smaller towers will often have to leave modules anchored, but offline until needed due to limited PG/CPU.

• Amarr
• Caldari - more CPU
• Gallente
• Minmatar -
• Faction - reduced fuel costs

In reality, faction tower fuel savings require about a year or two before the fuel cost savings will outweigh the cost of the faction tower over a regular tower.
