| Name | Level | Attack | Defense | Prerequisite | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electronic Computer | 1 | 100 | 233 | Electronic Computer | This is the most basic of computers. It is used in the most basic of manufacturing and processing. By using top speed computers of this type it is possible to safely pilot a ship throughout the empire. |
| Optical Computer | 2 | 133 | 289 | Optical Computer | This is the second level of computers used for space travel. The main innovation of this computer is the use of light particle/waves to enhance processing speed and capability. |
| Genetic Computer | 3 | 172 | 354 | Artificial Consciousness | This is the third and most common type of ship computer in use in the Empire. Utilizing artificial consciousness, this computer is able to process things as fast as its predecessors, however with its own consciousness, it can occasionally make intuitive judgments, which save time. |
| Quantum Computer | 4 | 218 | 429 | Quantum Computer | This is the fourth level of computer which many races never achieve. By using quantum processors this computer operates much faster than any computer before. |
| Neuro Computer | 5 | 271 | 518 | Algorithmic Research Computer | This is the final level of computer which is ever used in ships. Using the most self advancing algorithms, this computer is able to evolve itself to fit certain situations. This makes it much more powerful and versatile than any other computers which are small enough to be housed on a ship of any size. |
| Name | Level | Deflection | Recharge | Strength | Prerequisite | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electromagnetic | 1 | 1 | 1 to 10 | 15 to 1779 | Linear Programming | This is the basic shielding that all races develop. This level of shielding is required for a ship to survive the minute amounts of particles that are normally encountered around planets. It also helps somewhat during a battle, but is not that decisive. |
| Graviton | 2 | 2 | 2 to 20 | 21 to 2490 | Core Mining | This is the second level of shielding. In most races it is developed along with core mining techniques. It is needed for this purpose in order to keep the mining equipment safe from the huge pressure and hostile environment found in the cores of planets. The added strength of this shielding makes it more useful for battle. |
| Deflector | 3 | 3 | 3 to 30 | 29 to 3486 | Solution of Chaos Equation | This is the third level of shielding. Using probability and chaos factors this shielding improves on the Graviton shield by protective energy in areas which are predicted to be most threatened. |
| Barrier | 4 | 4 | 4 to 40 | 41 to 4881 | Algorithmic Research Computer | This is the fourth level of shielding. This level is not achieved by many races because they never research some of the basic ideas necessary for its development. Basically, this shielding uses even more advanced predictive means to focus and protect. |
| Multiphase | 5 | 5 | 5 to 50 | 58 to 6834 | Reverse Entropy | This is the final level of shielding available. It is rarely achieved by most races, but is of great use to those who do. By using energy in different means and transferring some energy through differing dimensions, this shield is sometimes able to in effect reverse the damage done to it as it happens. |
| Name | Level | Cruise Speed | Battle Speed | Mobility | Prerequisite | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Retro | 1 | 0 | 16 to 9 | 45 to 15 | This is the basic engine used by all space faring races at one point. It is by no means efficient and is often seen as a sign that a race is primitive. It does accomplish its goal of moving things from one place to another. | |
| Fusion | 2 | 0 | 22 to 13 | 54 to 18 | Cold Fusion | This is the second level of engine. It is considered by many races to be the first true type of engine used by intelligent species. It is a noted improvement on its predecessor, but it is still by no means the best. |
| Anti-Matter | 3 | 0 | 31 to 17 | 65 to 22 | Anti-Matter Power | This is the third level of engines. This is in fact the average engine in use throughout the empire. Using the improved power of antimatter reactions, this engine is faster and more useful for maneuvers than its predecessors. |
| Impulse | 4 | 0 | 42 to 24 | 78 to 26 | Energy-Matter Synthesis | This is the fourth level of engines and is only utilized by the most advanced races. This Engine is much more efficient than those before as it uses an advanced knowledge of energy-matter science to recapture much of the energy normally misused by engines. |
| Phase | 5 | 0 | 59 to 34 | 93 to 31 | Dimension Manipulation | This is the most advanced form of engine in use in the Empire. It used an understanding of the nature of space to move. To observers, the ship appears to simply jump from one place to another. This is inaccurate however as the ship is actually bending portions of the space in front of it into other dimensions, thus reducing the actual distance that it travels. |
