Tungsten Rod ammunition used for anti-armour roles.
Plasma Rounds carry a miniature plasma fuel cell designed to rupture and spill superheated gases upon the target. Resistant to PD.
Splinter ammunition consists of 8 smaller tungsten rods that separate before reaching their anticipated target, reducing impact force but maximising hit probability.
Zap Shell uses a two-stage ammunition type, the first stage releasing highly charged plasma and the second earthing a very powerful capacitor through the plasma medium and into a target vessel.
Nuclear ammunition is used to maximise long--term damage upon scoring a hit. Missiles Plasma Warhead
Nuclear Warhead
Beehive, an anti-fighter warhead combining the concept of canister ammunition with an equally destructive plasma cloud that serves as additional propellant. Creates a 20-degree spread that is deadly to lightly armoured craft at surprising range from detonation.
Cluster Warhead, carrying miniaturised variants of any of the above warheads.
Seekers More a combat drone with a missile’s terminal guidance, the Seeker is a high cost, high performance missile with the sensor kit and processing power to behave more like a strikecraft on its approach. Capable of dodging, enhanced target prediction, and flanking maneuvers alongside other Seekers or conventional missiles. Torpedoes Plasma Warhead
Nuclear Warhead
Cluster Torpedo, a specialised launch platform that can deliver any of the above missile types at higher launch speeds and from further ranges.
Short ranged (1 km) arrays of multi-barrelled cluster munitions. Each Iron Wall shell contains a pattern of explosive submunitions that in turn create even more shrapnel, collectively ensuring nothing emerges unscathed. CIWS
High-rate miniature gauss weapons delivering small tungsten ‘needles’ for the purposes of disrupting delicate munitions such as missiles. Anti-Missiles
Typically combined with CIWS mounts, and the longest range active defence system.
Similar in strength, adaptability and power costs to the galactic standard.
Siege shields - specialised shield arrays fitted to stations. Cycling shield generators between multiple capacitor banks gives much greater survivability, at the cost of proportionally greater mass and power drain. Not used on ships due to the deleterious effect on mobility. Armour
Honeycomb armour patterns favoured.
Adamantium is the name given to an armour material of exceptional hardness and resilience.
ERA plates are used to supplement current standard armour where additional protection is required, for example on the already well armoured crew spaces.
General
Power Generation and Storage:
Modified fusion reactors that harvest stellar matter as the fuel source.Propulsion:
Primary plasma drives provide the necessary thrust for most roles. When maximum acceleration is required, a small matter-antimatter annihilation is performed against a rear-mounted armoured plate to provide a significant kick.F-T-L Propulsion: Unknown
Error 404 - fluff not found Limited to predetermined ‘lanes’, which link nearby stars and provide exceptionally fast and safe travel for ships which can use them. Jamming a lane is almost impossible due to their nature?Computation:
Subdimensional Computing uses devices stored partially in FTL space. Sensors technology focuses on gravitational, EM radiation, and magnetic field analysis for general purpose. High resolution gravionic scanning technology is used to defeat stealth systems. AI is a new and still experimental development, rarely seen outside of certain military projects. While intelligent enough to learn, hold conversations (of a sort) and apply seemingly sapient problem-solving techniques, the Wraith AI system is nowhere near self-aware and requires prebuilt personalities to be installed rather than evolve naturally.Medical:
Medical technology has reached the point of allowing limb regrowth through intensive stem cell therapy. Augmetic replacement of limbs and internal organs with efficiencies orders of magnitude greater than the originals do exist, but are prohibitively expensive for all but the highest rungs of society. Antigravity technology is prolific, allowing for the production of efficient hovercraft in place of wheeled vehicles.Military
