Ships

Ships are the basic unit of attack in Starfleet Commander.

Ship Descriptions

Atlas Class: The basic cargo ship. The Atlas Class is extremely efficient for hauling cargo between planets or from raids.

Hercules Class: An upgrade to the Atlas Class with better armor, hull, and cargo capacity. However, it is slower than the upgraded Atlas Class.

Artemis Class: A basic assault unit. It is cheap, light, and dependable, and is the first attack ship that most commanders will build.

Apollo Class: An upgrade of the Artemis Class that uses a Pulse Drive in place of a Jet Drive allowing for greater firepower and defenses.

Poseidon Class: The Poseidon Class ship features around three times the defensive capability and twice the weaponry as the Apollo Class, in addition to being one of the fastest ships in the universe.

Athena Class: Many commanders utilize the Athena class as the principal ship for their fleets. Excellent defenses, strong weapons, and fast cruising speed make it a difficult ship to fight against.

Hades Class: With high speed, large cargo, heavy hull, and rapid fire versus many ships, the Hades Class is the optimal choice for heavy fleet versus fleet combat.

Prometheus Class: This is the largest heavy ship in the universe, exceeded by power only by the moon sized Zeus Class. It packs massive firepower and can be used to smash through enemy defenses.

Zeus Class: This is the heaviest assault ship. Its massive firepower is unrivaled.

Ares Class: A specialized ship used to demolish enemy planetary defenses. However, this ship is quite weak in ship versus ship combat.

Dionysus Class: These ships are used to collect debris left behind after battles.

Hermes Class: Extremely fast probes used to spy on foreign worlds.

Gaia Class: Used to colonize new worlds.
