Engines

Each ship has only one type of engine so choose carefully. Your ship will only start off with one engine mount

Nuclear Drive - c 50 - x 150 energy units needs 1 add mount for radiation shielding

Fusion Drive - c 100 - x 300 energy units

Cold Fusion Drive - c 200 x 400 energy units

Ion Drive - c 200 - x 350 energy units

Plasma Drive - c 150 x 200 energy units very unreliable

Solar Draive - uses large sails to collect solar radiation - c50 x 150 energy units - exteremly fragile

Ram Scoop/Hydrogen Drive - c 100 - x 200 energy units only available on starships not bases

Phase Drive - c500 x 500 energy units experimental

Anti Matter Drive - c1000 x600 energy units - for true startrek fans this is the drive for you

Impulse Drive - c2000 x75o energy units - this is the best drive by far and the most relaible.

Singularity Drive - c10000 x 1500 energy units - This is it, this is the baby that you want - that is until it is damaged, it is HIGHLY unstable and prone to go Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the following Jump/Hyperspace/FTL drives can be bought as additional mounts

Space Fold - c 200 - extra 100 energy - capapble of interstellar travel

Hyper Drive - c 300 - no additonal energy - but is best interstellar drive 100% relaible - most common

Warp Drive - as star trek - c 500 - fastest form of space travel - but ship needs external warp nassels

Linear Drive - experimental - c1000 - travel thru space as if surfing - can be used as a weapon

Trans Warp Drive - as star trek next gen - c 2000 - fastest form of space travel possible not as relaibel as warp drive prone to drive faliure but gives +300 energy units.

Phase Engine - gives 700 energy - highly experimental 50% chance of faliure - c 2500

Black Hole Generator - gives 600 energy - again experimental - uses a small black hole to generate the energy - also can be used as a weapon - c7000

Subspace Generator - this allows the ship to open a subspace conduit that allows a ship to cust travell time in half - this is experimantal and has a 25% chance of failure - c 9000

Slipstream Drive - as in Andromeda - this is a drive that allows a ship to slip into Hyperspace - this is the hardest drive to control as it needs a humanoid interface - only for the best helmsman - this also allows weapons and shields to bse boosted direct from the Drive itself. - c 25000

Phased Claoking Trans Warp Drive - gives 1000 units of energy - this is a highly experimental drive that allows you to cloak and phase (giving a better defence against weapon attack) at the same time - however this has a 70% chance of failure and cannot be used with other claoking technology. - c95000
