A Legion Base is a shared structure for the entire legion. A legion will work over time to upgrade it, unlocking new modules and increasing its potential.

Base Resource Production
Similarly to planets, bases can produce resources (mining, research, artifacts). Modules must be constructed to allow for the production of certain resources. All bases start with the same level of production. Early base levels do not produce much, but larger bases will start to produce amounts that exceed very good planets.
Unlike planets, base resource shipments are delivered once per day to all eligible members, split based on the preferences chosen. Legion members are eligible for shipments if they were active in the last day and have been with the legion for at least 24 hours.
Base shipments will be made to members even if they have already reached their planet resource capacity.
Leaders can increase the availability of certain resources by spending 'Production Points'. 5 Production Points are awarded each time the base gains a new level. A Legion may choose to focus all of their points on a single resource, but note that the cost to increase availability rises as more points are spent.
Point Increase Progression:
| Availability Level | Availability Bonus | Total Allocated Points | Points To Next Lvl |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average | 0% | 0 | 1 |
| Abundant | 25% | 1 | 1 |
| Very Abundant | 50% | 2 | 2 |
| Extremely Abundant | 75% | 4 | 2 |
| Rich | 100% | 6 | 2 |
| Very Rich | 125% | 8 | 2 |
| Extremely Rich | 150% | 10 | 3 |
| Ultra Rich | 175% | 13 | 3 |
| 1x Mega Rich | 200% | 16 | 3 |
| 2x Mega Rich | 225% | 19 | 3 |
| 3x Mega Rich | 250% | 22 | 4 |
| 4x Mega Rich | 275% | 26 | 4 |
| 5x Mega Rich | 300% | 30 | 4 |
Base Loyalty
A Legion member is considered "loyal" if they have been a member of the legion continuously for a week or longer. If a legion member leaves and returns, they are considered a new member, regardless of how long they were with the legion before. Loyalty effects many parts of the base, including its production bonuses, and whether certain modules can be used, such as the CT Lab.
Base Modules
Bases hold 2 different types of modules. Special modules occupy their own "special" space on the base and allow for production of resources and unlocking of base abilities. All other modules use up the the standard space, which is separate. This allows defensive modules to be constructed that do not conflict with the space used for special purposes.
Unlike ship modules, base modules cannot be "uninstalled", as there is no cargo storage, thus a base module can only be sold to free up necessary space. When a module is sold, the balance is added to the base funds.
All modules have a daily upkeep cost. If there are not enough base funds to pay the upkeep, all modules on the base will provide no bonuses until the funds are brought back to positive. Any Legion member may add more base funds by clicking on the ‘Add Credits’ in the actions tab.

Collective Theory Lab (Advanced Module)
After the legion has finished researching Hybrid Theory Dynamics, they will be allowed to construct the Collective Theory Lab (CT-Lab for short) on their base.
As with other special structures, the CT-Lab will unlock a new option in the 'Actions' tab when installed. Only members who have also finished researching Hybrid Theory Dynamics can use the Lab. Members must also be 'Loyal' to use the CT-Lab.
CT-Lab Discoveries
The CT-Lab allows the legion to research new 'discoveries'. A discovery is a special blueprint/formula that allows lab-users to convert artifacts into newer, more powerful artifacts. Unlike normal research, discoveries are completely random and are intended to be a way for members to constantly spend research points after they have completed most of the tiers.
Attempting a discovery starts at 2000 Research points per attempt. If a breakthrough is achieved, it will be added to the list of available options in the CT-Lab permanently. However, subsequent discovery attempts will cost more depending on how many discoveries have already been made (appears to be +2000 RP per attempt for every new discovery).
All discoveries are considered 'rare' and will typically be achieved in 1-2% of attempts. However, this chance becomes more difficult as further discoveries are made. Finding all of the available discoveries will be difficult and require attempts from many members.
Base Construction and Upgrades
A base can be constructed by any legion by clicking on the ‘Legion Base’ button in the legion area. (Cost: 100 Energy) There are 27 different images to choose from for your base. Some images are not available until the base has been upgraded a few times; level 5 bases have all base images unlocked.
Before Initial Construction: Base Under Construction image
Base Level 1: Image #1 Image #2 Image #3 Image #10 Image #11 Image #22
Base Level 2: Image #5 Image #8 Image #9 Image #14 Image #26
Base Level 3: Image #18 Image #19 Image #21 Image #23 Image #24 Image #29
Base Level 4: Image #4 Image #12 Image #13 Image #15 Image #17 Image #25 Image #27
Base Level 5: Image #6 Image #7 Image #16 Image #20 Image #28 Image #30
Members will need the ‘Advanced Logistics’ research to build any modules on the base or contribute to its upgrade. As the base continues to upgrade, members will need even more advanced levels of Logistics research.
Further Base upgrades can be achieved by clicking on the ‘Upgrade’ tab once the base has finished construction. Each base level requires a certain amount of resources and research level.

Base Abilities
There are multiple abilities that improve base outputs, defense and attack, and allow more to be done. Base ability points gain just like energy, but the cap depends on the level of base. Some base abilities require the installment of an Artifact module. Their is a list of each current ability for the base to improve your knowledge:
1:Emergency Repair Repairs 3% of the base hull for each Loyal Fixer profession in your legion. Costs: 4 Ability Points 1+ Fixer Professions (Loyal Members)
2:Auxiliary Fortification Boosts base hull maximum by 10% for each Loyal Lazuli race or Fixer profession in your legion. Lasts 4 hours. Costs: 3 Ability Points 1+ Fixer Professions (Loyal Members)
3:Cyborg DataChannel Boosts base research output by 2% for each loyal Vygoid and Zolazin member in your legion. Lasts 20 hours. Costs: 5 Ability Points Days since base was last disabled: 2+ 1+ Vygoid (Loyal Members)
4:Grid Surge Boosts base shield output by 10% for each loyal physicist in your legion. Lasts 4 hours. Costs: 3 Ability Points 1+ Physicist Professions (Loyal Members)
5:Trade Route Boosts base artifact output by 2%, plus an additional 2% for each active trade pact you have with other legions. Lasts 20 hours. Costs: 5 Ability Points 1 Base Comm Interlink Module(s) Installed Days since base was last disabled: 2+
6:Dimensional Decoy Boosts base defense by 5% for each loyal Aerlen member in the legion. Lasts 4 hours. Costs: 3 Ability Points 1+ Aerlen (Loyal Members)
7:Miners Coalition Boosts base mining output by 2% for each Loyal miner in your legion. Lasts 20 hours. Costs: 5 Ability Points Days since base was last disabled: 2+ 1+ Miner Professions (Loyal Members)

10:Inverse Energy Vortex [ Trap - 1 Day ] When applied, the next ship to damage the base will increase the bases' attack by 10% of that ship's attack rating. Costs: 2 Ability Points 1 Warp Arch Module(s) Installed 3+ Inergon (Loyal Members)
11:Krionite Minefield [ Trap - 1 Day ] When applied, the next ship to attack the base will be dealt damage equal to 50% of its maximum hull + shield. Costs: 1 Ability Points Base Level: 3+ 3+ Saboteur Professions (Loyal Members)
Base Combat
Once per day, members of a legion can scan for and attack another legion's base. Since this can only be done once every 8 hours per legion, this is usually restricted to just officers or leaders so they can plan the best time for the attack.
To find a base, go to the Battle Tab and click Enemy Bases. Here you can spend 5 Red Badges (minus one for each Command Beacon on the base, limit 3) to target a randomly chosen base (no chance of failure on the scan). If you do not want to attack that base, you can pay the red badges again to lose that target and target a different base. NOTE: Clicking outside of the scan window, closing the window, refreshing the browser, or clicking an NPC/Player/Planet alert will make you lose your scan if you haven't locked it in yet
Once you have chosen your target you can lock on and the legion can start attacking. Once the base is disabled the top damagers will receive a payout of silver badges, as per the chart below.
| Base Level | Top Damagers Receive X Silver Badges | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-5 | 6-10 | 11-20 | 21-30 | 31-40 | 41-50 | 51-60 | |
| 1 | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |

| 6 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
| 7 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
Base Raids
Bases that are level 4 and higher can be raided for 'Base Crates' after they are disabled. Raiding bases works differently than raiding ships, however:
- Each ship that has dealt damage to the base can attempt 1 raid on the base.
- The chance of a successful raid is based on the amount of damage dealt to the base.
- Raiders (and those with other % bonuses to raiding) will have their success chance increased proportionally.
Crates contain various special materials and artifacts.
Unlike ship raids, bases do not lose anything for being raided - it is merely a reward given to ships for its defeat.
