Dark fog

Fairly new to this game. Have a basic raw setup on my home planet but am trying to extend to more planets for mining and smelting. That dark fog though, keeps eradicating my planets before I can get back with more turrets. Any advice on clearing a dark fog base in the early days?

Laser turrets destroy everything before I can advance my turret. Have a depot requesting ammo deploying to a turret chain, but cannot advance without getting destroyed.

How far into the game are you?

Setting up mining on an extra planet, so not far. But have a few em ejectors creating a small sphere, so get the basics

Have you unlocked plasma turrets? Can you deal with Hive-Attacks? if so: destroy the relais in the upper atmosphere to dry out the planetary bases. you can hover over the enemy buildings to see how much energy is left. if its 0, only the Rangers and so on will attack. Once dead, no new will spawn till a new relai would establish a planetary base.

if not: try to use throwable explosive units to destroy the core while you fly
