HIDE
Types
There are five types of ships:
- Basic: can only fire at its targets and does not have any other specific characteristics.
- Raider: all species have this ship, which can loot raw materials from the stocks of its enemies. In addition, every species has an plasmator capturing ship, which can prey upon the raw material producing plasmators of its enemies. Attention: the name and class of this type of ship is different for each species!
- Blocker: special ships used by the Khaduuii species. These ships can block enemy ships during the given round of battle so that they cannot fire their weapons. As these types of ships are not combat ships, blockers cannot destroy the enemy. The Khaduuii species has blocker-type ships in all the ship classes.
- Shadow: special ships used by the Shin species. These ships are invisible, so probes will provide inaccurate information about the structure and size of a Shin fleet. The Shin have shadow-type ships in all the ship classes.
- Predator: special ships used by the Piraati species. The Predator can capture ships from the enemy’s fleet during battles. All combat ships of the Piraati species (Thief, Mugger, Outlaw, Robber, Bandit, Derrick, and Killer) have these characteristics.
A detailed analysis of the ships and their special characteristics can be found in the description of the battle samples.
You can also get information about these ships in the following places:
