As you can see from the above table, the quantum nova will handily destroy most starbases. If the planet's population is above 1m colonists, you must watch out, because that is when they can build 150 defense posts, which becomes a possible threat to your victory.

Comments

The Nova is the Federation's heaviest warship, and has 10 beams and 10 torpedo tubes. The Federation will usually build more Missouris, since they have 70% of the armament for half of the cost in minerals. But, when resources are more plentiful, the Federation will build some of these hammers.

With the addition of Quantum Torpedoes at Planets.nu, the Nova has become an even more deadly and frightening ship to fight against. Due to the Quantum Torp's extended range, the Nova can easily destroy most starbases with it (unless the starbase has many defense posts, which requires a high population). For a defending starbase to have a chance at survival against a Quantum Nova, it will need a ship to defend against the Nova to scratch its shields. This will greatly increase the chance that the starbase can win.
