Other notes:
Weapon: SDF Zica Pulse Disruptor
Notes: The Zica Pulse disruptor utilizes a Zica Crystal, when a beam of sub atomic particles that are meant to disrupt matter or energy pass through the Zica , the Crystal boosts the power level of the beam or pulse by focusing in to a sort of layered beam pulse, the disruptive affects are doubled by the properties of the Zica as it filters out non disruptive energy, on a low setting it can fire rapidly but is not as powerful as on moderate settings, on moderate it can fire at a normal speed but its power is boosted significantly, on high the power of the Zica disruptor is boosted exponentially, while it fires more slowly at this setting the weapon can make quick work of capital ship shields and hull.

Weapon: Neutron disruptor's
Notes: The Neutron disruptor cannon is a high leap from other conventional weapons, it is a extremely powerful weapon, when the disruptor fires in either beam or pulse mode, the pulse or beam contains layered disruptive energy surrounding Neutron particles, the particles oscillate back and forth at just under C, the energy field that surrounds the particles not only provides a boost of power but also keeps the cohesion of the particles, the weapon how ever tends to over heat due to the occultation, and thus twin mounts are usually in place on ships either linked or unlinked so when one barrel needs to cool off the other can fire.

Weapon: mega projectile cannon
Notes: the mega projectile cannon is a weapon that surrounds a high density slug with high energy plasma, usually blue appearance the plasma is maintained by an em generator on the 100 ton slug, the weapon is classified as a C fractional projectile as it fires out at .80 c, the plasma and gravimetric/ EM field helps hold the slug in place, it has a moderate to slow firing rate and can over heat if its fired to quickly.

Weapon: anitonic energy warhead
Note: This weapon is simple, it makes use of negative energy, it is meant to pierce through shielding and wreak havoc on ship power system, then the warhead explodes on the ships shields I spreads negative energy over the are, the energy literally cancels each other out, and the shields is converted to harmless free floating electrons, the weapon is extremely slow, but packs a powerful punch, it can drain shields rather quickly and effect shield generators extremely by crating a feed back loop. The torpedo doesn’t move as fast as a standard puffin missile and can be shot down easier. but it is considered a weapon of immense proportions .

Defense: Tri-Strontium hull
Notes: Tri-Strontium alloy is a special type of material used to construct many things, it is made from three types of exotic matter fused together, its an extremely light and durable alloy and when stuck by weapons it refracts 25% of the total energy and uses it as a defensive field hovering slightly above the alloy, new innovations have made Tri-Strontium ablative amour witch refracts 45% of the energy its hit with, it also has increased tolerance to disruptor weapons and heat . (OOC: its my homage to gal civ 2)

Defense:: Crystalvar alloy and Exatorim
Notes: Crystalvar alloy is formed from a Crystalline like mesh that’s found in several moons in the Terran prime system , the material is very strong in its raw form and can resist c fractional strikes of epic proportions but its energy tolerance is low , in its raw from an energy beam can shatter the structure and any amour made from it so it has to be bonded and fused with another super strong material called Exatorim, it has the opposite problem of Crystalvar, it shatters when its hit by projectile weapons but its extremely resilient to energy blasts, thus these two are molded to crate a well rounded defense against both weapons, Exatorim is found in the Servannain suns orbit, it has to be collected in its gaseous form , as the Exatora nebula clings to the starts gravity, no other known source has been located, Exatorim is refined and solidified with intense anti gravity fields to separate it from useless elements that it bonds with, in its raw form it is extremely flammable, and its close proximity to a flaring star makes it difficult to harvest .

Defense: Enhanced Multi dimensional rebounder
Notes: the Enhanced Multi dimensional rebounder is a type of shielding that basically opens a portal to other dimensions when it is shot the rebounder is able to literally take 15% of that weapon blast and send it back to the enemy, while an extra 10 % is absorbed in to the multi verse it is efficient but not 100 % as it only rebounds and absorbs 25 % in all of the energy, but improvements will see that increase.

Defense: Dynamic shielding
Notes: Dynamic shielding is a state of the art shield system, it can take energy kinetic or directed energy weapon and absorb it for its own use, how ever if enough power is put its way, the shields will over load , Dynamic shielding is usually multi layered, as once the Dynamic part is disabled a standard deflector shield takes its place.

Engine: hyper warp
Notes: Hyper warp drive has been in use with the Union for many years, what happens is the ship disappears out of the normal universe and in to the void between universes, the portal is opened to engulf the ship whole, it has a shimmering effect, once in the void it can travel any place in the universe with in 5 minuets, but the drive can be boosted up in case of an emergency to instant travel, but this requires the drive to recharge and be inactive for many many hours)

Weapon: 18 inch Neutron disruptor cannons
Notes: The 18 inch Neutron disruptor cannon is a much heavier variant of the standard Neutron disruptor it is nearly a battle ship scale weapons compared to others, it pumps tipple the power in to the pulse as standard Neutron disruptor cannons do,it focuses the pulse more tightly but also makes it larger, the focused Neutron energy is put in to a onioned pulse about 40 meters large.

Weapon: 20 inch mega projectile cannon
Notes: the 20 inch mega projectile cannon is a heavy weapon capable of firing standard MPC slugs at .90 c although slower firing and slower loading than standard MPC's it provides heavier fire power to ships on the field, the shell emits gravimetric energy to draw the surrounding plasma to it, the plasma sticks to the shell and offers an after burn to the cataclysmic effects of these weapons. the 12 Inch variant offers a faster rate of fire but is comparable to the standard MPC of older ships.

Point defense:
Prism phalanx system : the Prism phalanx system are a new type of point defense technology utilizing AIWES, it can track thousands of targets at once, and fire on multiple with a single cannon, its in the singly most integrated point defense system made, a single Prism phalanx cannon can target an enemy fighter virtually instantly , the other fighters in the area are also targeted via AIWES and its own sensor systems, the cannon maintains the lock and fires, a beam of multi pronged laser energy is focused in to a fighter, that fighter will then spread multiple beams to other fighters causing them to spread to others , the blast only last for a few seconds, but thats all it takes for this system to take its toll, missiles are also greatly effected buy it. The weapon comes with its draw backs after the main beam is fired every other beam spread resulting from it is considerably weakened , so the more it spreads the weaker it gets. this is corrected buy having multiple systems active at once.

Drive: chronosphere Drive
Notes: the chronosphere Drive system is a new advancement in space time technology, the drive systems crates a crackling ball of energy around a ship and transports in to a point in time and space specified, the drive utilizes a reverse dimension known as chronos space. chronos space is an area of the multi verse riddled with temporal anomaly's and dimensional jetties in the lower portions, our ships utilize higher portions of this space, it is a Grey and bleak area even with temporal shielding dilation effects are so grate time slows down remarkably. the interesting thing about chronos space is that the speed of light with every chrono jump is exceptionally increased.its not an FTL drive per say but more of a light speed extender out side of the universe, when the ship jumps back in to normal space (even in an FTLI environment) time around the blue globe of lighting like energy is so slow FTLI would not have time to affect it before its closed.

The draw backs to such a drive is that with over use with in a short period of time in one area can cause chrono storms, Unparalleled space time distortions that can destroy a ship with in moments, and open rips in to chrono space causing chronoshift reactions and affecting time. While safeguards and automatic shutdown sequences are placed in to this drive, an overload my cause a apocalyptic explosion that would be able to erase the entier ship and the surrounding area from history or to shift in to a point in time or to shift in to chrono space it self. its unpredictable nature makes it experimental for now but more research is being done in to it..
