==Ship Engine Types==
 +
 +
There are three types of engines currently in use in the Starfleet Universe, the Jet Drive Engine, the Pulse Drive Engine, and the Warp Drive Engine.
 +
 +
===The [[Jet Drive]] Engine===
 +
 +
The ancient Jet Drive Engine ignites a combustible gas and use the resulting thrust to move ships. While new advances have continually increased their efficiency, they are, on the whole, a relatively slow method of transportation. Still they are cheap and effective for units that don't require the advanced speed afforded by Pulse and Warp drives.
 +
 +
Ships using the Jet Drive Engine Type:
 +
*[[Hermes Class]]
 +
*[[Artemis Class]]
 +
*[[Hercules Class]]
 +
*[[Dionysus Class]]
 +
*[[Atlas Class]] (upgradable to Pulse Drive Engine)
 +
 +
===The [[Pulse Drive]] Engine===
 +
 +
The Pulse Drive Engine is an evolution of the Jet Drive Engine. Instead of igniting a stream of gas, it uses a series of nuclear explosions (pulses) to generate considerable thrust. This engine type is used on larger and faster ships instead of the Jet Drive Engines.
 +
 +
Ships using the Pulse Drive Engine:
 +
*[[Apollo Class]]
 +
*[[Charon Class]]
 +
*[[Poseidon Class]]
 +
*[[Gaia Class]]
 +
*[[Atlas Class]] (once upgraded)
 +
*[[Ares Class]] (upgradable to Warp Drive Engine)
 +
 +
===The [[Warp Drive]] Engine===
 +
 +
The Warp Drive Engine is the pinnacle of transportation technology. It uses magnetism to reshape the space-time continuum around it, allowing ships to move at faster-than-light speeds.
 +
 +
Ships using the Warp Drive Engine:
 +
*[[Athena Class]]

*[[Hades Class]]
