Ships
Ships are the basic unit of attack in Starfleet Commander. They require a Shipyard for building.
Ship Descriptions
Hermes Class: Extremely fast probes used to spy on foreign worlds.
Helios Class: The Helios Class is a power-providing ship unit. It is stationary and easily destroyed in a raid.
Artemis Class: A basic assault unit. It is cheap, light, and dependable, and is the first attack ship that most commanders will build.
Atlas Class: The basic cargo ship. The Atlas Class is extremely efficient for hauling cargo between planets or from raids. You begin the game with one of these ships.
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.
Charon Class: The Charon Class Transport is the only ship approved for civilian and droid transport. Each one is capable of ferrying 6 crew members between your worlds.
Hercules Class: An upgrade to the Atlas Class with better armor, hull, and cargo capacity. However, it is slower than the upgraded Atlas Class.
Dionysus Class: These ships are used to collect debris left behind after battles.
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.
Gaia Class: Used to colonize new worlds.
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.
Ares Class: A specialized ship used to demolish enemy planetary defenses. However, this ship is quite weak in ship versus ship combat.
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.
