<div>The [[Druuge]] '''Mauler''' is a slow ship with a very powerful long-range weapon but a weak recharge system.<br />
<br />
The Mauler's only weapon is a long-range, high-recoil cannon. Firing the cannon once will thrust the Mauler backwards slightly. Several shots will send it flying unless the captain thrusts his engines to resist the recoil.<br />
<br />
To compensate for the Mauler's weak battery recharging, Druuge captains have been known to order lower-ranking crew members to be thrown into the furnace. Although doing this costs the ship one crew member, it also recharges the Mauler's batteries halfway.</div>24.116.189.24https://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?title=Cruiser&diff=725Cruiser2004-09-09T22:22:55Z<p>24.116.189.24: </p>
<hr />
<div>The [[Earthling]] '''Cruiser''' is a slow vessel with a devastating arsenal of weapons. A Cruiser can hold its own against other ships as long as it maintains a safe distance from its opponent.<br />
<br />
The Cruiser's primary weapon is a guided nuclear missile. The missile's tracking is not perfect, but it's fairly accurate and will do a good amount of damage unless the enemy can shield itself upon impact or shoot down the missile.<br />
<br />
The Cruiser's alternate weapon is a point-defense laser system, based on mid-1980s "Star Wars" missile defense technology, that fires lasers at enemy ships, projectiles, asteroids, or anything else that is close to the Earthling ship.</div>24.116.189.24https://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?title=Torch&diff=293Torch2004-09-09T22:05:47Z<p>24.116.189.24: </p>
<hr />
<div>The [[Thraddash]] '''Torch''' is the pride and joy of Thraddash Culture Nineteen. It is very small, but its maneuverability and its powerful afterburners make it a serious contender even against large ships.<br />
<br />
The Torch's main weapon is a medium-range blaster cannon. The blaster is pretty weak (although it can penetrate an [[Umgah]] [[Drone]]'s anti-matter cone), so most Thraddash pilots use the Reeunk Afterburner as their main weapon. The afterburner accelerates the Torch to incredible speeds and leaves behind flames that damage enemy ships. A Thraddash can easily leave a trail of flames behind it for the enemy to fly into.<br />
<br />
The Reeunk Afterburner is a relatively recent addition to the Torch. Earlier revisions of this ship were armed only with the blaster and therefore deemed too ineffective for combat by the [[Ur-Quan Kzer-Za]]. Once they became battle thralls, the Thraddash were ordered to "guard the rear" by staying in their home territory. Now that their ships have been improved, the Thraddash would love nothing more than to try them out against another race and thus prove their worth to the Kzer-Za.</div>24.116.189.24https://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?title=Dreadnought&diff=440Dreadnought2004-09-09T21:56:01Z<p>24.116.189.24: </p>
<hr />
<div>The [[Ur-Quan Kzer-Za]] '''Dreadnought''' is the mainstay of the Hierarchy fleets. A fully-crewed Dreadnought can crush most opponents with ease.<br />
<br />
The Dreadnought's fusion cannon can destroy small ships in one or two hits. Additionally, the Ur-Quan captain can send out small, one-man fighter ships armed with lasers to harass the enemy. Each fighter has only a limited supply of air and fuel and must return to the Dreadnought after several seconds.</div>24.116.189.24https://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?title=Stinger&diff=742Stinger2004-09-09T21:39:21Z<p>24.116.189.24: </p>
<hr />
<div>The [[Zoq-Fot-Pik]] '''Stinger''' is a light vessel which can outrun and outmaneuver most other ships but cannot sustain much damage.<br />
<br />
The Stinger's main weapon is a short-range cannon that can be used to deflect incoming attacks from some other ships. Its alternate weapon is a "tongue" that shoots superheated plasma into the enemy's ship, inflicting incredible damage. However, the Stinger must be right next to its target to hit it with the tongue attack.</div>24.116.189.24https://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?title=Terminator&diff=307Terminator2004-09-09T21:34:43Z<p>24.116.189.24: </p>
<hr />
<div>The [[Yehat]] '''Terminator''' is a slow but strong ship that can deal serious damage at close range.<br />
<br />
Terminators are armed with twin short-range autocannons. The ship recharges energy fast enough that a Yehat doesn't need to worry about running out while firing. In addition, Terminators are equipped with an energy shield that will block almost all attacks except an [[Orz]] [[Nemesis]]'s space marines and a [[Shofixti]] [[Scout]]'s Glory Device detonation.</div>24.116.189.24https://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?title=Intruder&diff=737Intruder2004-09-09T21:29:03Z<p>24.116.189.24: </p>
<hr />
<div>The [[VUX]] '''Intruder''' is both incredibly slow and hard to turn, but it compensates for this by utilizing limpet mines to slow down enemy vessels.<br />
<br />
The Intruder is fitted with a unique warp system that enables it to warp in fairly close to an enemy ship. With luck, an Intruder can inflict serious damage on the other ship before it manages to get away.<br />
<br />
Intruders are armed with a gigawatt laser that can slice through any ship in a matter of seconds.<br />
<br />
The VUX's limpet mines home in on an enemy ship and stick to its hull, slowing it down. One or two mines will not greatly affect a ship's speed, but more than that will slow it down to the point where an Intruder can run circles around it.<br />
<br />
A favorite tactic of veteran VUX pilots is to gravity whip as soon as possible, then start dropping limpets when they fly past the enemy.</div>24.116.189.24https://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?title=Jugger&diff=439Jugger2004-09-09T21:22:43Z<p>24.116.189.24: </p>
<hr />
<div>The [[Utwig]] '''Jugger''' is one of the most dangerous ships in the quadrant, thanks to its unique weapons and shield systems.<br />
<br />
The Jugger's weapon is an array of six cannons that do not draw energy from the main batteries. With a moderate rate of fire and damage, a Jugger can obliterate most other ships with a few salvos. <br />
<br />
The Jugger's shields consume energy when used, but they draw energy from enemy attacks. Therefore, a skilled Jugger pilot who uses his shields only when necessary can keep his batteries fully charged and minimize damage to his ship.</div>24.116.189.24
