Class A Battleship: The Class A Battleship (CAB) is a veryversatle fighter. It can handle many different types ofweapons, although it only starts with the Laser and RapidLaser.
Previous
NextAlpha Droid: The Alpha Droid poses little threat on its own,but in groups they can be quite a problem. Their Burstengines don't allow for much maneuverablility, because theymust let it charge for a few seconds. After it reaches a fullcharge, the Alpha Droid darts off to the side. Since it isdifficult to hit while moving quickly, it is suggested to aimfor them while they are stationary, and charging the Burstengine. Alpha Droids are equipped with a light laser.
Beta Droid: The battering ram of the enemy fleet. The GammaDroid charges its attackers in a kamikaze fashion. If hit,the Droid gets destroyed, but deals massive damage to thevictim. The Gamma Droid is also fires lasers, but less oftenthan the Alpha Droid.
Gamma Droid: The Gamma Droid stays farther back than theother droids. It fires very often, which uses up very muchof its energy supply, limiting it's movement to a simple backand forth pattern. The Gamma Droid is usually found alone.It has significantly more health than the Alpha and Betadroids.
Omega Droid: The most powerful droid of the enemy's creation.It is essentially an upgraded Gamma Droid. Due to it's verypowerful reactor energy supply, it can fire much more oftenthan the Gamma Droid. The Omega Droid was developed forcombat involving many adversaries at once, so it fires aconstant stream of lasers in a circle.
Laser: Neonova inc. was proud to introduce this lightweapon in 2071. Although it does less damage than otherweapons, it is so incredibly efficient that it considered tohave an unlimited ammunition supply. The laser is standardon almost all Class A Battleships.
Rapid Laser: The Rapid Laser is the same as its standardcounterpart, but it can fire faster. Due to this, it has afinite amount of ammunition. Class A Battleships start witha small amount of ammo for the Rapid Laser.
Gatlin Laser: The Gatlin laser is another upgrade of the standard Laser. It is even faster than the Rapid Laser, andstill does the same damage. The Gatlin Laser is the mosteffective of the three Lasers.
Rocket: The rocket is a very powerful weapon. It fliesstraight forward, and lacks any guidance system. When it hitsa target, however, it unleashes a very strong explosion,which can also destroy enemies nearby to the original target.
Homing Rocket: The Homing Rocket works the same as theoriginal rocket, but it is a guaranteed hit. When launched,the Homing Rocket scans the area for threats, and locks on tothe closest. It uses extremely advanced propulsion methods,which enables it to quite literally turn on a dime.
Beam: One of the best weapons available to you, the Beampacks quite the punch. Sending a constant stream of energystraight ahead of the user, it goes through enemies, to hitothers farther back.
Super Beam: The Super Beam is a highly upgraded version ofthe Beam weapon. It does an incredible amount of damage toany enemy that is unfortunate enough to get in its way.This is your most powerful weapon. Don't waste it.
