Convert 20% + 100 colonists on a ship to troops each cycle.

Only used when you are transporting your colonists, troops, crew, or high guard to an enemy ship as a hostile boarding action.

The boarding laser helps your troops take over the enemy ship. It cuts holes in the enemy ship doing between 1% and 300% hull damage to the target depending on the size of the target ship. It kills up to 10% of the enemy crew, 40% of the enemy colonists, and 10% of the enemy troops.

You need to beam over 1 of your guys for every 5 enemies you want to take out. There are 200 movement phases and combat will not start until phase 50 so during the first one quarter of movement you have time to fly past an enemy ship, transport over a boarding party, rip the enemy ship up with the boarding laser and get away back out to deep space.

To use the device just turn it on and transfer your crew to the enemy target using your transporters. The ship using the boarding laser must have less than 50% system damage or the device will not work.

The device will not kill Crystal crew and colonists, but it will still allow you to get your boarding party onto the Crystal ship.

The device will not against Fed ships with less then 50% shield, system and hull damage. If a Fed ship has more than 50% damage in any of those three areas the boarding laser will work.

Boarding Laser,
Privateer With Plans

Steals molybdenum, tritanium, duranium, food, med units, and supplies (in that order) from all ships within 50 LY that you are at war with. It will steal as much as possible, until the enemy ships are empty or there is no more cargo room left to hold the stolen goods.

This device works after movement.

Burns fuel and reduces the ship's sensor image by 50 points. Ships that have a sensor image of 0 can not be seen. The ship overview screen will show you your ship's current sensor image. Be aware that moving at high speeds, using your transporters, minesweeping, traveling through web minefields, or enemy tachyon scanners can uncloak your ship. You can never be completely sure that you have not been seen. If you have the attack order for the ship turned on your ship will attack from cloak, you need to turn off the attack switch to avoid combat while cloaked.

Partial cloak is when the ships with a stealth rating of more than 50 and will not fully cloak the ship, the cloaking device will only make the ship harder to see.

Loads all the contraband from the surface of a planet and places the contraband in a gold pod in one of the ship's empty pod bays. The device works after all movement is finished. The device works only on planets and can not remove contraband from a base. The device only works if the ship has an empty pod bay. The dust off pod can hold 1000 kt of contraband.

Enemy ground bases on the surface of the planet block this device from working.

The device steals repair units from all ships, pods and planets within 50 LY of the ship. The device can take up to 500 repair units from bases and ships and as much as the ship can hold from pods. If the Crystal X ship does not have the room to hold all the repair units being taken the extra repair units will be dumped into space. Every ship and base will loose 500 repair units for every X Field it is sitting in.

The device has a 50% chance of capturing any enemy ship that has over 99% engine damage.

The device will erase any ship plan that ships, bases and pods have stored in their memory within 150 LY. If the enemy has a mobile repair plant turned on or a mobile ord plant turned on the victim ship will take massive damage.

The device can block all base chunnel atempts within 200 ly. The ship must end movement within 200 ly of the base that is trying to leave and the X Field ship must have less than 10% system damage. Ship chunneling can also be blocked. Any ship within 200 ly of an X Field ship can not start a warp chunnel jump. The Cyborg have the advantage of being able to chunnel as long as the X Field ship is more than 100 ly away.

The X Field will cause a energy feed back if it is hit by a Solorian Stellar Matter shot, the feed back will increase the stress of the planet with the base taking the shot by 0 to 200 HD stress units.

The device when on will convert 10 supply units into 1 kt of fuel. It can also convert 1 duranium, 1 tritanium, or 1 molybdenum into 1 fuel unit. The converter only uses metals and supplies that are in the ship's cargo hold. It will stop processing when the ship's fuel tank is full.

If the ship uses the command code "BDF" all but 60 kt of fuel will be beamed down to the planet below.

Causes all Chupanoids in the base under the ship to have 300% happiness and all Chupanoids join the base. The device has a range of 10ly and only works if the ship has under 10% system damage.

The device will also destroy food and kill amorphous natives out to a range of 250 ly. Food on planets bases and pods are all in danger of being destroyed.

Steals up to 50kt of fuel total from enemy ships within 50 LY. It will only steal fuel from races that you are at war with. This device works after movement.

It can not steal from a ship that has less than 20% system damage and a cloaking device that is turned on.

You can only take a max of 50kt units of fuel per turn, when that limit is reached no more fuel will be stolen, even when there are more ships in the area.

Fuel can not be stolen from the Solorian.

Places the money on the ship into the central bank account, the account that is used to buy tech, spy mana, and exotic tech.

Only the Colonists of Man can use this device.

The device will take 10000 units of money from the central bank and place it on the ship.

Only the Colonists of Man can use this device.

This device generates money and it has four basic requirements to make money. Rules 1 & 2 make the money and rules 3 & 4 limit how the money from 1 & 2 can be made.

1. Colonists in the ships guest quarters. This device will generate 1 MC per colonist on board, up to a maximum of 1000MC for 1000 colonists on board.
2. Colonists in bases below the ship. The ship will generate 300MC for every 1million colonists in the base(s) directly below the ship. (You do not have to own the bases to get the device to work).
3. Is the Device in deep space? If the ship is in deep space the maximum revenue that can be generated by the device is limited to 50MC. If the Device is over a base with less than 1million colonists then it is still considered to be in deep space or in a non-populated area.
4. Is there another Gambling Deck within 15ly? If more than one gambling deck ship is operating in the 15ly area the total income generated by all the ship devices in that area is limited to 500 mc. i.e. 250mc for 2 ships (500/2), 50mc for 10 ships (500/10) or 1mc per ship device if 500 devices are on in the 15ly area (500MC max/500 ships = 1mc per ship device).

Explodes the ship doing damage to all ships in the area. Flip the switch on and the ship will explode after movement is over. A ship with 50kt hull mass would take double damage. A ship with a 200kt hull mass would take half damage. All your own ships will take 25% of normal damage. The glory device explodes after movement.

Stormer ships can not be attacked before it explodes. All other races using a Glory Device can be attacked.

All ships with a hull mass of under 100 at point blank range will be destroyed in the glory device blast. The explosion does damage out to a range of 10 LY. Ships take half damage at range 1 LY and one third damage at range 2 LY from the center of the blast. (range 0 110% dmg, range 5 18% dmg, range 10 10%, range 11 0%) Your own ships take only 25% of the normal damage levels from the explosion.

All wings and pods in a 10 LY radius are destroyed in the blast, unless they are docked with a ship. Minefields in the area are also destroyed.

Planets in the area of the blast gain 150 HD Stress units, when the stress gets above 1000 units the planet is in danger of exploding.

If the explosion takes place over a planet or base with Amorphous natives, they will be turned into the spice contraband, supplies and food. One amorphous native yields one of contraband and 1/20 a unit of food and 1/20 a unit of supplies. There is a limit of 50000 amorphous natives getting blasted by a single glory device in a turn. The device will light up the planet under the blast for all other races in the universe to see.

Will only move a base from one planet to another. Does not move anything else. Burns 100 KT of fuel to do the move. Base chunnel is amoung the last things that happen in a turn.

The target planet must have a ground chunnel or warp chunnel ship over it. Either one will work. To use the device park the ground chunnel ship over a base that you want to move. Set the ship's speed to zero and the ship's waypoint to any planet with a chunnel ship over it that you own. Turn on the Ground chunnel device, next turn the ground base will be at the other planet. If there is already a base there under your ownership on the planet the two bases will merge into one base. The ship that sent the base will remain at the location it was at. This device does not move ships.

Ships with active X Field device within 200 LY will stop this device from working. 150ly if you are Cyborg.

When on, the plans to the ship being towed are stored in the ships data bank. Will only work if the ship's data bank does not currently have a ship plan in it. Will work on any ship under tow, including enemy ships that you are not in control of.

To use it just turn it on and tow the ship that you want the plans of. If you end up towing it you will get the ship plans.

Hyperdrive is a ship part that allows you to fold space and travel large distances. This jump would consume the same amount of fuel regardless of load or distance.

There are ways to stop or prevent or stop ship from hyper jumping with the Gravitonic mines and the Gravity Well Generator.

There are two types of hyper jumping. Normal and fast hype.

Fast hype allows you to do your hyperjump at tick 0 of the movement phase, and then allows you to do normal movement after the jump. Normal hype you jump at tick 100, and do not get to do normal space movement.

If the ship has 10,000 mc and 1,000 molybdenum on board the ship will build a jump gate when this device is on. The gate is built after movement.

All Jump gates have a 3 letter code, which is the code needed to travel to the gate. Jump gates can only be destroyed by anti-matter maul super weapons that have set the gate as a kill target and have parked on it. To travel to another jump gate park your ship on any gate and set one of the ship's command codes to the code of the gate you wish to travel to.

Jump gate travel happens after normal movement. When you come out the other end of the gate you will not have any scanner readings of the area and any enemy in the area will not have seen you yet. You have one turn to move your ship before you are seen by the enemy. Jump gates are very hard to defend do to the fact anyone can jump out of one from another gate at any time if they know the gate code, so be very careful where you build them. To find out the code of an enemy's jump gate just fly a ship up next to it and scan the gate to see the gate's 3 letter gate code.

Extracts mineral ore from the core of the planet under the ship and converts it into metals and stores the metals in the ship's cargo hold. Most ships are able to drill up to 1000kt of ore out of the core of the planet per turn. There are two ships that can drill up to 10000 units of ore out of the core a turn, those ships are the Corona Class Orbital Miner and the Evil Empire's Slayer class.

The drill increases the climate of the planet by 0.3 a turn and the HD stress of the planet by 10 to 60 points. The device has no effect on ore or metal that is sitting on the planet's surface. The device will not mine fuel or fuel ore.

Can destroy one minefield per turn. The device has 80% chance to destroy a minefield that has a center that is within 150 LY of the ship after movement.

The device will destroy your own minefields. The only fields that it can not destroy are web mines and cloaked barbitic mines.

Destroys one enemy minefield or recovers one minefield belonging to your race converting it into ordnance units and stores the ordnance on your ship. You do not collect ordnance from enemy minefields that you sweep.

The device will not sweep cloaked minefields.

A nightmare weapon that can steal all the money from ships, gold pods and construction pods within 50 LY of the ship. It can steal all the money on a base that is in excess of 10000mc. It steals from all ships, pods and bases at once. The device works after all movement is finished.

It will take money from races that you are not at war with and those that you are at war with.

Loads up to 400,000 of the natives on the planet under the ship onto a native life pod and places the pod in one of the ship's empty pod bays. This takes place after movement. The device will not remove natives from a base, it only works on natives that are on the surface of the planet outside of a base. The device will only work if you have an empty pod bay on the ship.

Enemy ground bases on the surface of the planet block this device from working.

When on the ship grabs ore from any pod in the area (including ones that do not belong to you), any planet you are over and any of your own bases. The 2 ore is converted into 1 metals and stored in the ship's cargo hold. The only limit as to how much can be processed in a turn is the size of the ship's cargo hold. Ore processing costs nothing.

You can have the metals automatically transported down to a base you own if you are over one with the ship command code BDM (Beam Down Metals).

The armor is 5 times stronger than normal armor. Organic armor ships start with no armor and must grow all their armor using med units. One med unit yields one unit of armor.

• Weapons do 1/5 normal armor drain damage, small weapons do nothing.
• Weapons with high kill ratings can do heavy damage to Organic armor at a rate of 1/8 the kill rating per hit on the armor.
• Weapons with less than 5 armor drain do NO damage to the ship's armor.
• Organic armor ships can not be refitted or repaired with normal armor units.
• The Solor Gamma Ray ship device destroys 1 point of organic armor every combat tick.

Extracts mineral ore from the core of the planet under the ship and converts it into metals and stores the metals in the ship's cargo hold. The device will mine a limit of 2000 kt of ore per turn.

The Evil Empire's Slayer class can mine up to 20000 kt a turn using this device. The fountain increases the climate of the planet by 3 a turn and the HD stress of the planet by 1 to 50 points.

The device has no effect on ore or metal that is sitting on the planet's surface. The device will not mine fuel or fuel ore.

Increases the hyperdimensional stress level of the planet under the ship by 0 to 10 points. It increases the hyperdimensional stress delta (base frequency) by 5 points with a maximum of 300 delta stress. The delta stress is the amount of stress a planet gains in a turn. When a planet reaches a stress level of over 1000 it is in danger of exploding. The hyperdimensional stress delta is the rate that the hyperdimensional stress will increase each turn.

Be sure to keep this device out of the hands of any Crystal enemies you might have.

This device generates money and it has four basic requirements to make money. Rules 1 & 2 make the money and rules 3 & 4 limit how the money from 1 & 2 can be made. Rule 5 is a happiness bonus rule.

1. Crews on the ships. This device will generate 0.1 MC per colonist on board, up to a maximum of 50MC for 500 crew members on board.
2. Colonists in bases below the ship. The ship will generate 100MC for every 1million colonists in the base(s) directly below the ship. (You do not have to own the bases to get the device to work).
3. Is the Device in deep space? If the ship is in deep space the maximum revenue that can be generated by the device is limited to 50MC. If the Device is over a base with less than 1million colonists then it is still considered to be in deep space or in a non-populated area.
4. Is there another Show Lounge within 15ly? If more than one Show Lounge ship is operating in the 15ly area the total income generated by all the ship devices in that area is limited to 250 mc. i.e. 166mc for 2 ships (250/2), 25mc for 10 ships (250/10) or 1mc per ship device if 250 devices are on in the 15ly area (250MC max/250 ships = 1mc per ship device).
5. The device will increase the happiness of the colonists on bases under the ship by 3 points.

Removes up to 20% of the crew limit of the ship with the HAARP device from enemy ships and turns them into your own crew. Has a 20LY range. This means the Lady Royale Class Ship has the power to remove 1400 enemy crew from enemy ships at a range of 20 LY. This device works after all movement is finished.

The ship must have room for the new crew members or the number taken will be reduced to what the ship can hold.

Solorian are immune to the device.

The device sends a signal to the base below to fire its Stellar Matter Launcher at the ship's kill target. The ship must be parked over a base with a Stellar Matter Launcher. For the weapon to fire the base must have the ordnance to fire. The Solorian Stellar Matter Launcher building fires a blast of energy at space craft at a long distance. The device requires 40,000 ord units to fire. The blast will be fired at the kill target object if it is in range. The device does more damage to smaller ships. Firing the weapon causes 300 points of HD Stress in the planet under the base. The weapon fires after all movement is done and only can damage things in space, it does not damage ground bases.

The Launcher has a maximum range of Star_Heat * 6 and has a blast radius of 20 LY. The power of the blast decreases by 5% every LY out from the blast center. Solorian craft are not immune from the blast.

Use the Stellar Matter Launcher tool to calculate the damage and distance.

The Solorian Maelstrom ground unit can reduce the stress of the planet during a weapons firing by 1 unit each.

This device can not be used on ships that are fully cloaked. It can be used on ships with active cloaking devices that are generating more than 400 units of sensor noise and ships that have been made visible by a laser mine detonation.

Has a range of 100 LY and works before movement. The scanner causes almost all objects in the area to show up better on scanners. The sensor image of anything in the area is increased by 250 points.

The only ships immune from the Tachyon Emitter are the Darkwing and Resolute Classes, however those ships can be uncloaked by a Loki class with a skilled crew using a Tachyon Emitter. A Federation crew with under 100 skill can light up an enemy with 5 points of scanner image. If the Fedration crew has over 100 skill points they can light up the enemy with 20 image points. A high guard ranger on a Federation ship can add an extra 80, with or without a skilled crew.

Only works if the ship has less than 25 system damage.

Burns 10kt of fuel when on. The device has a 70% chance of stopping an enemy ship from transporting a boarding party onto your shipas long as your ship has less than 30% system damage.

The device only protects the ship with the device and does nothing to help ships near it.

Moves a ship and all ships next to it to another ship that has a warp chunnel device.

The target chunnel ship must be a member of the same race as the chunneling ship. Pods, wings, and ships can all move through a warp chunnel. Chunneling burns 100 KT of fuel. There is no limit to the distance warp chunnel ships can move. Chunneling can not be blocked, stopped, or disrupted by gravitonic mines or gravity well ships. There is no limit to how big or how many ships can travel with the chunneling ship. To use the device set your ship's speed to zero, set your waypoint 1 to the (x,y) of a ship that you own and also has a chunnel device that you want to travel to. Turn on the chunnel device. If you have enough fuel your ship and all ships, wings and pods next to you will be at the other ship next turn. Ships, pods and wings belonging to other races can also travel through the warp chunnel with you.

The only ships that will not enter the chunnel are ships that have a command code set to "NCH". A command code of "JOE" will cause only ships that are escorting the chunneling ship to enter the warp chunnel.

Ships exit the chunnel with 50% shield power.

A ship with an X Field device can block a Cyborg Warp Chunnel at a range of 100LY from the beginning point of the chunnel. Non Cyborg Chunnel ships can be blocked by a X Field device out to a range of 200LY.
