Death Star

From OGame Wiki

The Death Star is the most advanced ship in the game, although it is not considered by most a "ship", but more of a battle station. Graviton Technology must be researched as a requirement for the Death Star. It has the highest weapon power, shield strength, and structural integrity in the game. The Death Star can destroy Moons. It is usually referred to as a RIP, Rest In Pieces or Rest in Peace. It is the most powerful, expensive, and slowest ship available. Some consider the Death Star to be the ultimate achievement in the universe.

Uses and Advantages

Due to their exaggerated hull and shield power, Death Stars are very difficult to destroy in large numbers, with most of the opposing firepower being "spread" (i.e 500 Destroyers vs. 20 Death Stars = average of 25 Destroyers shooting at a single Death Star, resulting in no real damage). Additionally, the Death Star can act as both defense (due to having rapid fire against every ship in the game short of another Death Star) and anti-defense (due to being heavily armored, shielded, and having rapid fire against every defense except the Plasma Turret and the shield domes).

Shortcomings

Despite their power and armor, single Death Stars are actually quite easy to destroy without fodder protection; 60 Destroyers, 150 Battle Ships, or 35 Plasma Turrets will do the trick. This can be offset somewhat by having more than 1 Death Star in the attacking fleet. This does not, however, take into account weapon, shield, and armour technology research levels. Additionally, the Death Star is very slow, leaving it vulnerable to Sensor Phalanx hits.
