Saber (Frigate FF) (Top of Page)

The saber class fills the fleet roles of scout and frigate. Although the Saber is the smallest starship currently deployed by Starfleet, it is a modern design and features the same late-era technology that the rest of the fleet is based on.

Defiant (Light Cruiser Advanced CLX) (Top of Page)

Part of Starfleet's Advanced-technology starship program, the Defiant class began development in 2366. The design goal was to create a small but heavily-armed and highly powered ship to defend the Federation against the Borg. The prototype played a pivotal role in the Dominion War and was later involved in the battle surrounding the Borg attempt to alter Earth's timeline.

Intrepid (Light Cruiser CL) (Top of Page)

First Introduced in 2370, the Intrepid class features some interesting innovations. Among there are the configurable warp nacelles. Originally designed to counteract the subspace damage found to be occurring through the use of older warp drive technology, the new nacelle system also allowed the Intrepid to reach sustainable speed of nearly Warp 10. The third ship of the class id the famous NCC74656 USS Voyager, commanded by Captain Kathryn Janeway and believed lost in the Delta Quadrant in 2371. Very fast and maneuverable while at the same time heavily armed, the Intrepid is the light cruiser of the fleet.

Akira (Heavy Cruiser CA) (Top of Page)

Starfleet began production of the Akira class in 2370. Designed purely as a combat vessel, the Akira supplements the Sovereign and Defiant classes by filling the cruiser and assault roles.

Excelsior (Heavy Cruiser CA) (Top of Page)

Originally designed and built in the 23rd century, the Excelsior class has been refitted and upgraded to make it a capable ship still today. Excelsior class starships have seen heavy use over the decades including in the was with the Dominion. The Excelsior class is nearing the end of its service life and will soon be replaced by the Akira class.

Nebula (Battlecruiser BC) (Top of Page)

Slightly smaller than the Galaxy class and originally intended to server as a science & exploration vessel, the Nebula class starship has since been refitted to serve in a fleet combat role.

Galaxy (Dreadnought DN) (Top of Page)

Once the flagship class of Starfleet, the Galaxy class starship is an enormous vessel originally designed for deep space exploration and fist contact roles. While the Galaxy vessels continue to function in that role, they have also been adapted for fleet combat operations and serve as the dreadnoughts of the fleet. USS1701D USS Enterprise was of the Galaxy class.

Designed as part of Starfleet's advanced technology starship program and fist launched in 2373, the Sovereign class is the most impressive vessel in Starfleet. The current version of Starfleet's flagship, NCC1701E USS Enterprise, is of the Sovereign class.

Notes:

Shields protect a starship from enemy weapons fire and other hazards by generating a field of energy around the vessel. Each ship is allowed to mount 4 shield generators, each covering a different ship of the ship.

You can reinforce shields in game, by either boosting one shields at a time with power from your other 3 shields, or by diverting more power from other systems into the shield generator.

Federation Shields are better than average.

Notes:

The Phaser (short for PHASed Energy Rectification) is the standard primary weapon for all ships in Starfleet.

"S" denotes Standard Type phasers. "F" denotes Fast-Firing type phasers. Fast-Firing types has shorter reloading time, but do less damage. Phaser beam dissipates over range, therefore it does more damage at close range than at long range. Type 9 to Type 12 are the standard ship-mount phasers. There is a Type13 phaser that is unavailable for ship-use. Type 13 is used on stationary firing platform only. (i.e. Starbase, Defense Satellite.)

Notes:

The weapon is a variation on the standard phaser technology, it uses an energy field to coalesce phaser energies into bolts. Due to its nature, it dissipates faster, therefor have a shorter range, but it does significant damage if hits.

It has a secondary effect that there is a chance a small portion of the damage will pass through shields and directly damage the hull.

Notes:

Standard weaponry on a starship. It can be used in normal or proximity mode. In proximity mode, it is detonated when it comes near the target and produce a "depth-charging" like effect. In this mode it is less likely to miss and does less damage.

Notes:

The system gives the ship the ability to carry Antimatter mines. Mines are dropped behind a ship and arm when the ship is a certain distance away. They will detonate when any ship (even the ship that laid them) is in proximity. Mines supplies are limited and have to be bought at SupplyDock between missions.

Notes:

Armor increases hull strength of the ship. Once shields fail in combat, enemy hits against the ship hull will be calculate against ship's armor first. The ship sustains hull damage (not repairable in battle) or system damage (repairable in battle) only after the armor has been depleted. Armor, unlike shields, does not regenerate in battle.

Notes:

The transporter is a matter energy conversion device that can teleport objects or persons across space. It can be used to mount Marine Raid against enemy ships, or beam special cargo in and out your ship. The Rating of the transporter system is the number of items/persons it can energize at the same time.

Transporter has a small recharging time before it can be used again. It has a very limited range.

Notes:

This system generates a focused stream of graviton energy that holds an enemy ship at a fixed position relative to the originating ship. This system can be used to hold a ship, or repel another tractor of equal or less level and make the ship untractorable.

Once the beam is engaged, the originating ship can "rotate" the tractored ship around it. This, used in conjunction with regular turning can be used to move a ship into weapon arc to fire. Or conversely, move the tractored ship away from your damaged shield. "Rotation" is a misnomer, "revolution" is a better description. The tractored ship still has the ability to turn -- rotate about. A tractored ship is also a lot easier to hit.

Federation Tractor emitters are relatively harder to destroy.

Notes:

Each level increases maximum sensor range. If a targeted ship is within sensor range, it will show its schematics and weapon readiness. You can only plan marine raids on ships in sensor range. Only one computer is allowed per ship.

Level III and Level IV computers can also detect for cloaked ships in a limited fashion.

Notes:

The power output given here assumes that it is operated by a Level 1 Engineer. More experienced officers will be able to generate more power using the same warp core.

Notes:

The impulse engine is used for sublight traveling. Each ship has no preset maximum speeds, it can travel as fast as the impulse engine is able to take it. The top speed of the ship depends on the overall actual mass. Therefore it's different from hull-class to hull-class. It is also different from one configuration to another.

The power output given here assumes that it is operated by a Level 1 Engineer. More experienced officers will be able to generate more power using the same impulse engine. The heavier the ship, the slower the ship.

Notes:

The thruster is used to turn ships in combat. It is measured by the Maneuverability rate in game. It is inversely related to the ship mass. The heavier the ship, the harder it is to turn it.

The power output given here assumes that it is operated by a Level 1 Helmsman. More experienced officers will be able to generate more power using the same thrusters.
