First ship down, the Hammer class frigate: A long range bombardment craft which sacrifices armour and manoeuvrability to mount a massively oversized power core, allowing its pulsed laser to reach out to unprecedented ranges and still be capable of destroying most similar sized craft. This Hammer is largely defenceless towards nearby smaller or flanking craft however, as it has little beyond a single missile launcher and a pair of flak guns to defend itself with. Ideally the Hammer would be grouped along side a destroyer or two, or in a fire support role for larger craft.

Aries Class destroyer: A multi-purpose craft used in a variety of roles. It is usually seen acting as a scout craft, as its long range multi-spectral sensor suite mounted in the prow is ideal for monitoring enemy movements, whilst still being fully capable of defending itself should the need arise. It is also seen in a support role for the Hammer class frigate, as when the Hammer is linked with the Aries' sensor grids its accuracy increases at long range, and also acts as a defence against flanking craft. Its primary means of attack are six repeating artillery cannons mounted on each side, with a scatter missile launcher to augment this. The sides of this craft are heavily armoured, however its guns are vulnerable to fire.
