Clans
Clan gifts & loot depot
Give resources or ships to a clanmate within their aid limit. Learn what returns, what becomes theirs and how the Loot Depot works.
How it works
A loaded aid convoy gives its resources to the recipient; the transport ships return to you. An empty aid convoy gives its eligible mobile ships permanently. A ship gift is not temporary defensive support.
Both forms require the membership waiting period, permission to receive aid and room in the recipient’s allowance. The limit counts gifts received during the stated period. Ship gifts count at their resource value.
Only eligible cargo transports carry a resource gift. A ship gift also needs recipient Hangar room. Policy and ownership are checked again on arrival. Refused aid returns without being delivered. Aid cannot be recalled.
Eligible ordinary raid returns can allocate a clan loot share to each member’s Loot Depot. Claim your available share to a suitable planet. The depot is separate from the treasury used for Clan Hangar upgrades.
Your next decision
Check the recipient’s allowance and what remains on your planet before sending. Aid has its own speed bonus and extra flight-bay allowance. Those benefits do not apply to stationed defensive support.
Choose clan support if you want the ships to stay yours and return later. Choose a gift only when you intend to give up ownership of its resources or ships.
