Space:
This is my most information packed sectors buyers beware! h

Item Descriptions for the ships:
The heavier the weapon the slower the reload rate and swivel/tracking time. There are also different mounts. All have auto tracking to give the most accuracy. Also the larger the weapon mounts the longer the range. Goes from light mount to medium mount to heavy mount to ultra heavy mount to light spinal mount to medium spinal mount to heavy spinal mount to ultra heavy spinal mount.

All have Reajax Fuel Cells and Class VII shielding
Class VII Shielding:
Shield Stopping Power: 53%
Shield Recharge Rate: 3% per second
Hull Space Occupied: 5%

The Hull Damage On the Specs of these weapons are for comparison only. It gives you an idea on how much more powerful one weapon is to the other.

Laser:
Highly focused beams of coherent light that delivers modest damage over long rang.
Weapon recharge rate: 2.5 seconds
Max damage: 7 hull points
Max range: 12,960 Km or 8035.2 miles
Base accuracy: 70%

Mass Driver:
Fires a small mass at tremendous velocity. It has a longer rang than a plasma cannon but is still a short-range weapon. Also of a note is that damage is constant regardless of distance.
Weapon recharge rate: 2.5 seconds
Max damage: 14 hull points
Max range: 9,687 Km or 6005.94 miles
Base accuracy: 50%

Rail Gun:
An improvement over the mass driver, the rail gun fires more and bigger projectiles at much higher velocity at its target, the kinetic energy released on impact is considerable.
Weapon recharge rate: 2.5 seconds
Max damage: 30 hull points
Max range: 11,873 Km or 7361.26 miles
Base accuracy: 50%

Hard Beam:
The hard beam operates by firing highly polarized photons at the target. The Photons release considerable heat energy into the target causing damage.

Weapon Recharge Rate: 3 defense points for every 1.5 hull points
Maximum Defense: 200 defense points
Maximum Range: 3590 Km
Shield Penetration: 80%


FDA: This stand for Focus Detection Array, this is the bare bones in detection systems. The FDA lets you see where you have already been and has basic communications on an unbreakable (so far) frequency. All ships have this.
AFDA: This stands for Advanced Focus Detection Array, which has more equipment, and it is more updated with a longer range and better communications.
ECM: This stands for Electronic Countermeasures which gives you a good chance of scrambling another ships target abilities and communications.
ECCM: This stands for Electronic Counter-Countermeasures, which gives you a chance to disrupt a ECMs signals.
ASTS: this stands for Advanced Space Tracking System, which gives the ship that this is on a greater hit chance.
ISEP: stands for Increased Survivability Escape Pods, which gives your evacuation pods more supplies and fuel so that they last longer than normal. They also have a beacon.
The armaments you see are basic, Custom Ordering is available. We will also take contracts for ships over long periods. These ships are built to be fast.

Comments: A space station that can repair and refit anything in these ship classes. It can be put anywhere in the galaxy and stay in than position because it has a slight engine speed. Very heavily armed and dangerous.


Transports:
Each cargo hold can carry 30,000 liquid or solid assets, or 3,000 soldiers. You can customize. Do not go above the hold numbers on the ships or the capacity.

Light Cargo Transport Ship or LCTS= 2 billion
Crew: 75, 1 Captain, 5 gunners, 5 system monitors, 5 engineers, 10 cargo packagers, 1 Diplomat, 49 crew members
Mass: 136,938 tons, 3 Cargo holds, can carry 30,000 tons of liquid assets in one and 30,000 tons of solid assets in the other, Can also carry 3,000 troops with complete equipment including vehicles, with tie down loops on all sides of the cargo hold for the equipment. It also has complete living facilities for the soldiers
Max speed: 200 miles per second.
Armament: 4 heavy mount lasers, 4 medium Mass Drivers, 2 light rail gun. Has standard Zortruim armor with light shielding.
Comments: this is best used for resuppling the smaller ships and for moving stuff between the larger ships. In addition, it has a diplomat on board for face-to-face negotiations. Can outrun bigger ships so it is good for smuggling.


Medium Cargo Transport Ship or MCTS= 3 billion
Crew: 250, 1 Captain, 20 gunners, 20 system monitors, 20 engineers, 30 cargo packagers, and 159 crew members.
Mass: 356,912 tons, 9 Cargo holds with 4 at 30,000 ton liquid assets, 3 at 30,000 ton solid assets and the other 2 can carry 6,000 troops with complete equipment including vehicles, with tie down loops on all sides of the cargo hold for the equipment. It also has complete living facilities for the soldiers
Max speed: 140 miles per second
Armament: 8 medium mount lasers, 8 medium mount Mass Drivers, 4 light mount Rail Guns, and 4 light mount Hard Beams. Also has medium Duranium armor and heavy shielding.
Comments: This ship is good as a main cargo carrier for smaller fleets and is good for larger but the next class is best for large fleets or long expeditions. This is a good in between planet transport.

Large Cargo Transport Ship or LCTS= 4 billion
Crew: 700, 1 Captain, 60 gunners, 60 system monitors, 60 engineers, 200 cargo packagers, 20 pilots, 299 crew members.
Mass: 1,932,782 tons, 60 cargo holds with 25 at 30,000 ton liquid assets, 25 at 30,000 ton solid assets, and the other 10 can hold 30,000 troops with complete equipment including vehicles, with tie down loops on all sides of the cargo hold for the equipment. It also has complete living facilities for the soldiers
Max speed: 90 miles per second
Armament: 12 heavy mount lasers, 8 heavy mount Mass Drivers, 4 spinal mount Rail guns, 10 cutters and 100 point-defense guns. It has Heavy Duranium armor and advanced heavy shielding.
Comments: if you need supplies and do not have anything to carry them with then buy one of these. In addition, this can be customized to hold just one type of supply, like solid, liquid, or troops. Cannot enter and re-enter atmospheres.

The reason for the smaller cargo holds is if it is hit and gets through the shield and the hold rips open you do not lose all of your supplies. Part of the reason why the transports are so cheap is because they do not have a lot of weaponry and they are relatively small. I mean how many people do you know would need 1,500,000 tons of supplies, and that is only on one ship.

Carriers:

Centennial Class Carrier or CCC= 30 billion (Carry’s a lot of fighters, missile capable)
Crew: 2,900, 1 Admiral, 29 commanders, 100 gunners, 100 engineers, 100 system monitors, 320 pilots, 400 crew members

Comments: If you need many fighters, cause they can be deadly in large numbers, than this is the ship you should get. It has just as many fighters as 7.5 leviathan class capital ships would. That is why the large ships have point defense

Planetary:
T.R.A.P.S Logistics System
T.R.A.P.S- Transporter Relocation and Provisions Synthesizer is an instillation that can be put with any military to increase its effective capability and area of influence. Military supplies and ordnance, personnel, even vehicles and small craft can all be relocated on demand using this system. The synthesizer can also create ammunition and explosive ordnance as needed, if it is supplied with sufficient external power.
Price: 500 million per T.R.A.P.S Logistic System

Just as a example at 1 times Earths gravity it would take 5 days at 90 miles (with no starting burn) a second to get to mars at its closest approach form Earth. That is on conventional burners not Sub-Light drives.
