Guard Posts are immobile AI units. They are like turrets for AI and are the main challenge when neutering or capturing an AI planet. They also serve as [[AI War:AI Reinforcement|AI Reinforcement]] points, hence their name. While their firepower is high, paying close attention to hull types and bonuses is required when dealing with them. They all have a very slow regeneration and a [[AI War:Radar Dampening|Radar Dampening]] that make them impossible to outrange.
 
 
 
There is three pools of Guard Posts: a regular pool, a pool for the [[AI War:Planetary Subcommanders|Planetary Subcommanders]], and a pool for the AI homeworlds, named Core Guard Posts. While subcommanders can pick their guard posts in the regular and their reserved pool, the homeworlds can only have guard posts picked from their reserved "Core" pool.

Core Guard Posts are a stronger and more dangerous type of guard post that only spawns on an AI homeworld. They have a small [[AI Progress]] cost to destroy but they must be destroyed before the [[AI War:AI Home Command Station|AI Home Command Station]] in that system can be destroyed.<br/>All Core Guard Posts increase [[AI Progress]] by 1 when destroyed. Unless the "Lazy AI" option is activated, they also increase the AIP floor by 10 when destroyed.
