Phage-class station
Codex:phage-class-station.png?nolink&600
Phage-class mineral processing and refueling stations are an codex:AI-operated semi-permanent installations in The rings. Station attaches itself to a large ringroid and extracts water and minerals by melting it's interior. A protective net is deployed around the target to prevent excessive fragmentation. Mineral output is delivered to Enceladus Prime via front-mounted codex:mass driver.
Water is stored inside the station and delivered to miner ships docked to the station.
* Docking arms will catch and guide nearby ships to docking position. * Water is a byproduct of the operation and can be purchased from the station for 1E$/kg.
