It's a large minnie...my question is, how do I put ammo in the guns? Approach them and deposit, or somewhere within the tower itself? And if I am using Large ACs do I use standard large AC ammo I would in my tempest?

Thanks

Did you really just announce you put up a POS in GD?

Taking bets on how long it stays up!

Depends on where it is.

What system is it in?

I bet there are no jerks who would try to ruin someones fun with operating POS in EVE just to have few LOLs

Custom ship skins, character creator style "repaint". Bring it!

i don;t think you need to appraoch the guns anymore, but you have to put the ammo in the ammo bay of the guns and then online it. when it gets a target it will move ammo it needs to the fireing bay and use it.

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

This largely depends on where the POS is located. Please tell us the system and what moon it's on so we can help you further.

Remember that POS guns use one size larger ammunition than the gun. Small POS guns use medium ammo, Large POS guns use XL ammo.

Have fun.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

*laughs* Like he'd be able to get it anchored before BLOB.

OP, for a mere 50m I will act as guardian to your POS. I will be camped right by the tower in an industrial - you'll have to let me through the field, obvs. - and I will man the guns and feed the tower and do general maintenance to keep things spick and span. I will also have to be admitted to your corporation though, and I will additionally require a lapel badge with your corps logo.

My demands are modest, and I feel that I could be a real benefit to you and your POS

Perfection is a dish best served like wasabi .

Seems like you need some help bro! Im experienced in POS maintenance and due to my long history of NULL-adventures
( i dont want to sound cocky but i was involved in major Null-sec Alliance logistic-corps ) im the best man for this job!

Just invite me and OH ... i need director and you know.. the "usual" stuff to keep things running. I'll convo you ingame. We could even use the POS to create a huuuuge tradehub in that region, we could make HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF ISK! But of course, i cant do this all by myself, just running a simple POS.

We need an Organizer, someone who is good in chilled , smart gameplay-decisions. Someone who can pull the strings from behind the scenes, you dont know by any chance someone that is suitable for this job, do you ?
