Nexus raid
The Nexus raid is a standalone RPG-style adventure: gear up five ships and take on alien raids alone or with a group.
Behind the Nexus portal waits a game mode that works very differently from classic SpaceInvasion. It is tied to your BITMEUP account rather than to a universe, and it runs in seasons. You can see whether the portal is open under Aliens: if it is closed, a notice appears – with a countdown to the opening if one is scheduled.
Your fleet
- Tank: Draws the enemy fire and can take far more punishment than the others.
- Repair: Repairs the other ships during battle.
- Damage: Three attack ships that deal the damage but are the most fragile.
Each ship gains experience and levels up. With higher levels it gains structure and unlocks more equipment slots, where you fit modules for attack, protection, repair, critical hits or structure.
Missions and raids
Missions cost energy, which recharges over time. They give experience and, with a bit of luck, new equipment. In raids your ships fight alien fleets from five races – single bosses with lots of structure and huge swarms. You can take on raids solo or in a group. Victories bring equipment and energy.
