Terran Units


Ground Combat Units


Marine
Marines are the first line of defense for many of the Terran colonies. Outfitted with Powered Combat Suits, Marines are afforded full life-support, NBC shielding, and in-field chemical delivery systems. The standard-issue C-14 "Impaler" Gauss Rifle provides even a single soldier with extreme firepower.




FireBat
Equipped with powerful, twin arm-mounted "Perdition" flame throwers, these fearless warriors serve as assault troopers for those close encounters. Fire Bat Power Suits are heavier, more durable, and much more heat resistant than Marine armor, and provide additional squad-level support.




Vulture
The reliable Vulture-Class Hover Bike, used primarily for scouting and patrol, can reach speeds of up to two hundred and thirty miles per hour. Standard armament is an anti-personnel grenade launcher, but newer Vulture models also carry a Spider Mine deployment system for perimeter defense.




Goliath
A well known sight along the Rim, Goliath Combat Walkers combine all-terrain maneuverability with compu-based heavy weapons systems. The one-man Goliath’s arsenal consists of twin anti-armor 20mm Auto-Cannons and Hellfire Missiles for anti-air support.




Siege Tank
The heavily armored AAV-5 Arclite Siege Tanks are renowned throughout the Confederacy for their cannons’ unrelenting barrages of plasma-charged doom and their stalwart emplacement/advance tactics. The Mjolnir Artillery Cannon is so powerful that the Tank must brace itself before deploying. Crew consists of a driver, gunner, and a commander/navigator.



Air Combat Units


DropShip
The heavily armored Terran Dropships are a vital part of Colonial defense, and are fully rated for both atmospheric and deep space flight. The daredevil pilots of these transports are charged with delivering Marine armor and infantry to any hotspot or combat zone.




Wraith
The versatile, one man Wraith fighters are a new addition to the Colonial space forces. Traditionally, most space battles took place between the large capitol ships and medium gunships, but Tarsonian technicians found that small, dynamic high-speed fighters could repeatedly deal damage to large ships while still evading most defensive battery attacks. The Wraith is armed with both air-to-air missiles and a versatile burst laser for ground attacks, and is equipped with the latest in ECM and Stealth technology.




BattleCruiser
The massive Behemoth-class Battlecruisers are virtual flying fortresses, built to keep the peace within the Terran Sector. Outfitted with multiple burst-laser batteries for both anti-air and anti-ground support, these ships are easily the most powerful Colonial vessels. Recent research has also led to the development of the devastating Yamato Cannon, for use in situations requiring more precision than orbital nuclear bombardment. Only the finest officers are chosen to serve aboard the pride of the Confederate fleet-- do you have what it takes?



Specialized Units


SCV
Initially used during the reconstruction of the Tarsonian Orbital Platforms, the T-280 SCV (Space Construction Vehicle) became a staple in intra-Colonial construction and engineering due to its ability to perform any number of construction tasks within the vacuum of space. It is this versatility, and an unmatched reliability, that make the SCV an invaluable tool in rapidly establishing Marine encampments and strike bases on any terrain. Maintain your civilian status while serving your Colony!




Ghost
Ghosts epitomize the height of human evolution and physical conditioning. These brave men and women, born with incredible psionic potential, are adopted by the Confederate Government and trained from infancy to benefit mankind. The Ghost's uniform combines the latest in personal stealth technology and a sophisticated sensor suite, which can be used to coordinate nuclear strikes from the front lines. The Ghost's C-10 Canister Rifle uses a variety of special munitions to disable or destroy enemy vehicles, personnel, and encampments. Remember: all children born within Confederate Space must report for a PA Profile within nine months of birth!




Science Vessel
Many Colonies have placed Explorer Platforms at surgical points throughout the galaxy to further study anomalous phenomena, and the Corps' own Epsilon Squadron uses them extensively along Confederate borders for surveillance and study. Recently, as alien forces have begun to infringe upon Colonial space, Explorer Vessels and crew have been recalled to help with the research and production of new military weapons systems and technologies, as well as providing electronic warfare and combat support.
