You were my best friend. When corporate outposts started popping up and I had 300kCr to use to purchase you.
Should Phoboses have hyperion reactors, or some Ares knock-off? (like they cloned the Yoroi for the Cydonian) I mean, Deimoses have SN2500's (which if I recall, are actually too small to run their equipment)

Could be. Making them military also means they won't show up in late game CW stations, which will make them a lot harder to get. I think only rin economy stations will carry level 10 military equipment with any frequency.

I know, right?
I actually thought they were /supposed/ to be non-military...
Maybe those settlements should provide military grade stuff?
And phoboses should have hyperions

Phobses & CW settlements, yes
Or make military stuff mail-orderable, but I think that would be severely unbalanced
Then again, an even larger pricetag to the already ridiculously pricy mail-ordered items could be applied if they are military...

All that being said, this entire post relates to the fact that the hyperion is now classified as Military, and can therefore no longer be ordered at a trading post

Ordering 100 nuclear missiles is an unlikely scenario. However opening up *some* military stuff would be good.

How about making military supplier stations instead?

Maybe using the unused corporate station graphic george has?

If the reason for the 250 mw and 500 mw reactors to be military is power output, then it is silly for the 1 gw reactor not to be.
In every game I played, I got all of my 1 gw reactors from the Teraton fabricators.

If availability is a problem, let Point Juno and maybe CSCs upgrade all the way to 1 gw. Aside from fuel consumption, the only time I really need a 1 gw reactor is when I am loaded with level X devices near the end of the game.
Speaking of fuel consumption, I think fuel in general drains way too quickly, but that is another issue for another thread.

CSC's & PJ won't have a readily avaliable stock; its a ringer item; you'd only find them installlable by ringers or on sale individually elsewhere.
