* Large cargo hold for a [[:category:battlecruiser|Battlecruiser]].
* Great for beginners, as it has ease of use with the turret based armament and is a good ship as an introduction to [[:Category:Capital Ship|Capital Ships]].
*Good for destroying small [[Ships]].
* Good damage output with the turrets.
*Great for beginners. As it's cheap for in cost, and teaches the basics of capital [[Ships]].
*The [[Turrets|Heavy Railgun]] can shoot at a long range (and has 8000 range), making this ship an exceptional siege weapon.

* Though not a blind spot, the bottom is poorly defended.
* Out-gunned by the [[Hyron]] and (arguably) the [[Mjolnheimr]]; the '''Bastion''' has a very weak weapon armament, being worse than several [[:Category:Frigate|Frigates]] thanks to the lack of spinals.
* Compared to the [[Mjolnheimr]] and [[Hyron]], the turrets are far less accurate. However, the '''Bastion''' does have higher damage output than both of the mentioned ships.
* Due to the way the ship is shaped you have to turn it to get it out of dock which can give time to enemy [[Ships]] to do damage.

* A great ship to bring to a siege as its [[Turrets|Medium Railgun]] can shoot the base from a distance, then your small turrets and [[Turrets|Point Defence Lasers]] can work on shredding defending ships such as Furies.
