After reading a few things from everyone's side, let me just state some simple facts of life.
Stations are made of metal which is weak to anti-matter which bombers, cruisers, gunships and battleships can all carry.
If this was real, the anti-matter would obliterate a station upon first impact with its shields off and would insta-kill a platform as well
On another side, of things, look at all NPC bases in disco. All of them are being supplied by NPC's, including illegal bases by pirate freighters EVERY DAY, 24/7.
If a base gets attacked, then it gets attacked, oh well. PoB's are just overly complaced NPC bases.
We are the NPC suppliers and we are the NPC destroyers of said base when its found. They get supplies and what not and can be destroyed even if they get to it.
Like I said, be thankful the dev's did this rather then drop it to: 1 BS heavy mortar + hitting base reactor = boom. Because in RP that's what would happen and to say, those bases have one reactor and due to their size and shape, their not that shielded when they are hit, they would fully explode and kill everyone inside the base and destroy all cargo.
