Warden Station

"The city inside Warden Station is nice, if you can get past the fact you're on a mega-structure that dwarfs the Flagship. Which is probably docked in one of the shipyards with a chunk of the main fleet. Also if you can get used to the large military presence. The Spire sentries are pretty freaky too, people say those can slice Cruisers in two. Did I mention it can be very colorful inside? Enough to give you a headache in some places."

A dark fortress shell armed to the teeth gives way to a bustling mega-city of bright lights and colors on the inside. In orbit around the planet Deskion.

Defences

Anti-Ship, Anti-missile/other small threat (including Strike Craft) turrets mounted to the station itself, Anti-ship gyro-spire/crystalline turrets about 300-400m across scattered about also. Hangars specifically for the station's own strike craft, and patrol fleets of Sub-capitals and Strike Craft. Also, the main combat fleet, which together looks bigger than the station, though the flagship itself is dwarfed by the station.

Industry & Trade

There's plenty of jobs people have access to around the station, as well as those who take advantage of the fairly large number of travelers that pass through. Most jobs are keeping the structure from breaking down, providing maintenance where needed. But there's also jobs you might expect to find in a planet bound city. Though many materials that the station can't produce on it's own, things some fuels, some forms of food (like meat.) There's also the shipyard, while that mostly is for the main fleet it does build smaller sub-capitals that are often for sale.

Infrastructure

The main part of the station is a large, multi level city, with both enclosed halls and mostly open plazas with walkways connecting upper levels. Public bio-domes or similar structures allow for a break from the city's sights. Industrial areas tucked away and out of sight from brightly decorated market plazas. Occasionally one might find locked areas for more official faction people. The lowest levels of the station are occupied by cargo/hangar bays, massive shipyards, and observation decks. Usually a handful of the shipyards are filled with larger ships.
The outside of the station is a large, armored shell that's relatively plain. Various turrets mounted to it for defense on the off chance they'll be needed. Various Spire sentries also loom outside the station, providing both an intimidating form of decoration and defense.

Architecture

Utilitarian/futuristic mixed city. Buildings such as shops and market areas are often painted friendlier colors, with bright lights. Residential areas are more plain, but still decorated enough to not look grim. Industrial areas are (as should be expected) very plain, as are hangars and larger ship docking access.
