Resource Den

The Resource Den protects a portion of your resources from plunder. When protecting resources on your planet, it will attempt to do so in equal quantities (it follows the attack plunder formula) and those resources do not display on an espionage report of your planet.

Hired Guns

Resource Den capacity in Starfleet Hired Guns is given by the following formula:

Capacity = ⌊12543 · Level^2.2984⌋
