Classes

• Carrier Class- Large scale ships designed to carry smaller fighters and shuttles.

  • Superhauler - A huge and lumbering ship that can haul multiple asteroids and transport vast quantities of goods, as well as generally having very spacious crew quarters.
  • Freighter - A large ship that can haul several asteroids at once and transport goods, as well as generally having spacious crew quarters.
• Warship Class - Ships designed for space combat.

  • Kali Warship - Huge automated warship employed by the Ishvana.
  • Battleship - Heavily armed and armoured warship.

  • Cruiser - Strong, relatively fast, but with less power and shielding than a battleship.
• Fighter Class - Small, agile ships designed for dog fighting.
  • Interceptor - Quick, nimble fighter. Very versatile for use in all aspects of spaceflight, though not very sturdy.

  • Ta-deth Fighter - Quick, nimble fighter employed by the Ta-deth.
  • Swarmship - Sapphire Cult fighters designed to attack en masse.
