so , the recent release of citadels is the smallest station now only avilable? OR is there a newer matching sized station coming out soon? as read in the previous post regarding outposts , a good deal of people like - small places- and what is offered is akin to having your camper replaced with a giant Mall building .

as far is price is concerned that too has *blown up* so to speak, the old price of buying an outpost setup VS a citadel or engineering rig? as mentioned - camper VS Mall building .

sofar industry is offering MED - Large - Extra Large.

is a small replacement forthcoming soon?

Citadels replace the functionality of a Gallente Outpost, Engineering Complexes replace Amarr & Caldari Outposts, Drilling platforms will eventually replace the functionality of the Minmatar Outpost. The new structures have better bonuses than the Outposts but are destructible while the Outposts are conquerable.

Engineering Complexes will also replace the manufacturing and research functionality of the POS. There is no "small" EC and the existing models are difficult for a small industrialist to cost justify - a lot of us will likely become renters instead of owners when POS are removed from the game but - that could change as CCP iterates on the design over the next several months.

Oh, look, another, "I don't understand the difference between a POS and an outpost" thread.

That's novel.
