'''Sieges''' are a strategy commonly used to destroy [[Starbase|starbases]]. It involves the use of capital siege ships, especially [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts.]] Many ships are built for this purpose, such as the Hasatan, [[Avalon]], [[Ridgebreaker]],and [[Kraken]]. For support, other ships may also be used, to destroy any incoming enemy ships, or to distract base fire. | '''Sieges''' are a strategy commonly used to destroy [[Starbase|starbases]].

Different fighters have their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, a [[Nixesion]] has a lot of firepower and can do quite a bit of damage to a [[Starbase]] quickly, but can be killed really fast when close enough to the Starbase due to its speed (at least when compared to other fighters) and mediocre [[Shields|Shield]] and [[Hull]]. The strategy of players using them also has an impact. | Different fighters have their own advantages and disadvantages.
