How to support a factions growth?
In my current game the Argon are destroying the split in the N of the universe. The Split are making me great money through trading but I now see the Argin are destroying their stations attacking their ships and building defense platforms in the Split sector.

What’s the best way to support the Slipt war effort to keep them in the game while not ruining my relationship with the Argon whom I also trade with?

Should I strategically destroy a few Argon stations? If so which ones?

What trade goods and stations can I provide or build in the Split sector to help build them up again?

Thanks!

Generic answer? Check out their ship yards, see what they are missing. Make more of that and sell to them.
You can set station selling restrictions to a single faction if you want to.

The Argons wont mind if you let a Behemoth disappear every once in a while. (assuming you have decent standing with them)

The stuff they are missing in their wharfs - drown them in it, and they should eventually get their sectors back (assuming the Xenon arent also invading them 24/7)

I recently helped the Tempest take over all the HOP and PAR sectors. The very most helpful thing? Go to the shipyards, wharves, and even equipment docks and hack the production and build lines every 5 hours. HOP didn't make a new ship for days - Tempest rolled them.

Also help the split with their stations. Just recently helped the ZYA - once you get high enough rep you see they never finish any stations defenses - they all want turrets and shield components, Field coils, etc. And those with missiles have none. I set up traders that only delivered those items in ZYA space. You'll need to make special factories because their need is massive. Oh and wonder why they repair damage so slowly? Never found one that had more than 1 repair drone. When you make them a station put in at least 10.

What do you mean “When you make them a station”?

Can you build a station and give it to them somehow…?

Thanks

You can actually. Cruise near their stations and watch your mission manager for a station building mission. Accept one, build the station. It's auto given to them when you meet the requirements.
Meet their requirements... which means, if you don't, you can keep building. They want hull parts factory, build a mega factory for everything but hull parts. Give them ship building, everything. Slap hull parts on last and boom, they get a fully functioning mega station ready to wipe their enemies with.

Build factories in opposing factions and let xenon go rampage.

Than feed them your goods.
