I've been searching, but I can't seem to find anything concrete on this.... so I'll go ahead and ask here P

I've heard that POS gun tracking and optimal are both calculated from the tower they're anchored at, and not the guns themselves. Is this true?

Someone has anchored a pos someplace we dont want it to be, and they only have large weapons on it. But the way the guns are positioned, I wasn't sure if we could just speed tank them with battleships (hard to keep up transversal on all the guns at once)

Just have an interceptor spin around the tower really fast for a night, then attack when they run out of ammo Big smile

Lol I thought about doing that, but we calculated that it would take roughly 10 hours to empty the arties

We've been assaulting the guns with tier 3 BCs to great effect. Probably wouldnt be as effective if they'd have had any sort of e-war.... but hey
