Factions
You choose at character creation, and you do not choose again. It sets where you spawn, which contracts you are offered, and who shoots you on sight.
The Federation holds the trade routes and the established colonies. Its pilots escort convoys, secure mining belts and push back incursions in contracted sectors.
Structure, logistics, weight of numbers.
The Pirates live off raiding and control of lawless space. No convoy to protect, no front line to hold — only targets, and room to vanish afterwards.
Initiative, mobility, hit and run.
In game
A shared persistent space, where the other pilots are real and what you lose stays lost.
Fly with mouse and keyboard, direct targeting, shield and hull management. Damage is arbitrated by the server.
Asteroids in neutral sectors supply the raw materials of the game's economy: ore and components trade between players, always under the threat of a raid.
Stations are the only safe places to repair, rearm and trade. A ship docks there to make use of them, then has to undock manually to head back out on a mission.
The contracts you are offered depend on your faction. Completing them earns experience and unlocks new ships and equipment.
Ships
Your first ship is given to you; the others unlock as you progress. Each one commits you to a way of playing rather than simply hitting harder.
HULL 01
All-round
The ship handed out when you create your account. Balanced, with no speciality: enough to learn flying, shooting and mining before you commit.
1 × CANNON
HULL 02
Fast attack
The fastest and most agile of the four, and the one that takes a hit worst. It lives on initiative: engage, strike, break off before the answer.
2 × LASER
HULL 03
Front line
Heavy and slow, built to hold a position and absorb punishment. The only hull that mounts a railgun, a long-range piece.
2 × CANNON · 1 × RAILGUN
HULL 04
Hauling
Built for transport and trade. Lightly armed, lightly armoured: without an escort it is a target.
1 × CANNON
