A

Acubeir Bubble – A Subspace bubble field projected around an object for Faster Than Light travel. Also called a Warp Field.

Acubeir Drive – Also called a warp drive. Used as a secondary means of FTP propulsion on Tekanian Stellar vessels. Kraskinov Wormholes being the primary type of FTL propulsion in use. Kept as back up for short run FTL needs (less than a 10 light years usually)… Kept for being more efficient in power consumption for short distances than hyperspace systems.

Acubeir Field Coil – The set of colameter coils used for generation of the Acubeir bubble. Also called Warp Coils.

B

C

Chronos, TRSS. SCV of the Orion Class, Hull number BSG-3. Flagship of the Stellar Navy of the Republic of Tekania’s 2nd Fleet.

D

Dilithium – A crystaline element used to attenuate plasma within a Matter Anti-matter Reaction Chamber for power and propulsion.

Duranium – A metalic element used in the construction of ship hull and armor.

E

Eagle One – The Name of the Republic of Tekania’s main orbital defense station. And headquarters for the Tekanian Republic’s Stellar Navy and Marines.

F

FTL – Faster Than Light. A term used for propulsion systems which enable vessels to exceed the speed of light. Either through actual alterations in space-time, or by shortening the distance between points. Warp, Transwarp, Hyperspace, and Wormhole technologies all fit in this category.

G

H

Hyperspace – A region outside the normality of realspace, entered into by some exotic propulsion systems. The Republic knows of this technology, but does not impliment it due to its primitive nature, and inefficient use of power.

I

J

K

Kraskinov Generator – The device used to create artificial wormholes between two points in space time. The primary form of FTL propulsion on Orion class SCVs. Operates by channeling plasma energy through a shaped mass of Naquadah 299 which produces a neutrino stream to open and hold and stabalize a wormhole.

Kraskinov, TRSS – SCV of the Orion-II Class, hull number BSGX-5. Lost during trials of the Mark 10 Kraskinov Generator

Kraskinov, Tube – An Artificial Wormhole…. Named after the early scientist who postulated the generation of the event. Also called a K-Tube, K-Gate, or simply Wormhole. A spacial anamoly that interconnects two points in space and/or time.

L

M

MARC – Matter Antimatter Reaction Chamber. Also called a Warp-Reactor. Uses a serious of particle emiters to collide matter and antimatter beams inside of a Dilithium crystal for producing attenuated plasma in FTP propulsion systems and general power usage.

M/A Warhead – Also called a photon torpedo. Warhead produces an explosion by colliding a variable ammount of matter and anti-matter together… Yield available up to 1 gigaton.

N

Naquadah – Exotic element, atomic number 299. Used in Kraskinov Generators for the creation of temporary artificial wormholes on Tekanian Stellar Navy vessels. Acts as an energy amplifier, emits high-energy neutrinos when in contact with other forms of energy.

Naquadria – Highly unstable isotope of Naquadah. Shares Naquadah’s energy amplification properties, but will explode in a massive subspace event when in contact with an energy source… Used in some Tekanian torpedo warheads.

Neutronium – Superdense material, only found in some classed of burnt out stars.

Neutronium Composite Armor – Secondary Hull material used on some Tekanian Stellar Vessels…. Usually alloyed with Duranium to decrease mass per volume.

NQ Boost Torpedo – Most powerful guided projectile weapon system in usage. Applifies a standard M/A warhead by channeling the power into a variable yield load of Naquadria. Yield available up to 92 exatons.

O

Orion, TRSS. SCV of and namesake of the Orion Class. Hull number BSG-1. Flagship and personal escort of the Chief of Stellar Operations over the Republic of Tekania’s Stellar Navy and Stellar Marines. Permanately attached to "Eagle One" Station.

P

Particle Cannon – Point defense system used on Tekanian Stellar Vessels. Usually anti-proton beam.

Pegasus, TRSS. SCV of the Orion Class, hull number BSG-2. Flagship of the Stellar Navy of the Republic of Tekania’s 1st Fleet.

Phased Particle Cannon – Primary weapons used on many Tekanian Stellar Vessels. Usually mounted on turrent systems.

Phaser Array – Less powerful, but quicker weapon system than the phased particle cannon. Also used on many Tekanian Stellar Vessels.

Q

R


Regenerative Armor – Primary Armor Technology used on many Tekanian Stellar vessels. Has similar properties as Ablative Armor, but is combined with a storage and nanite technologies to "regenerate" when reduced in weapons fire or impacts.

S

SCV – Short for Sector Control Vessel. Descriptory class usage for the the Tekanian Stellar Navy’s larger Battleships and Dreadnoughts, which are built more as mobile starbases.

Spectre, TRSS. - Intelligence vessel and namesake of the Spectre Class, no Kraskinov capability, though warp Capable... Will generally operate with and near a Orion or Orion-II class SVC (for K-tube usage). Fitted with a Predator Class Cloak.

T

Thor, TRSS. - SCV of the Orion-II Class. Mk10 Kraskinov Generator, Hull Number BSG-7. Attached to the Deep-Space Intergalactic Exploratory arm of the Stellar Navy.

Tiamat, TRSS. - SCV of the Orion-II Class. Mk10 Kraskinov Generator, Hull number BSG-8. Attached to the Deep-Space Intergalactic Exploratory arm of the Stellar Navy.

Titan, TRSS. – SCV of the Orion-II Class. Sistership of the TRSS Kraskinov, also with a Mark 10 Kraskinov Generator. Hull number BSG-6. Attached to the Deep-Space Intergalactic Exploratory arm of the Stellar Navy.

Tritanium – Metalic element used in construction of starship hulls and support systems.

U

V

W

Wraith, TRSS. - Sistership of the TRSS Spectre. Intelligence vessel of the Spectre Class, warp capable, no kraskinov capability. Fitted with a Predator Class Cloak.

X

Y

Z

Zeus, TRSS – SCV of the Orion class. Hull number BSG-4. Flagship of the 3rd Stellar Fleet of the Republic of Tekania’s Stellar Navy.

ZPE Torpedo – Also called a Quantum Torpedo. Warhead channels a standard M/A warhead explosion through a Zero-Point envelope to produce a variable yield explosion variable up to 120 gigatons.

ZPM reactor – Also called a Quantum Reactor. Uses a confined trapped load of matter in a zero point fold-space to produce high-energy plasma. Used in some of the Stellar Navy for Tekania’s newer military vessels.

Good stuff, and just beacause I can't resist...

It's Master Chief,
