Episode 2: Treachery
Episode 3: Mission Suicide

= Version 2.0
Episode 4: An End to Fate

Episode 5: Hazudra Fodder

= USP Talon Light Fighter
The USP Talon provides you with one full inch of armor plating and a generous full-sized generator an engine area.

Cost = $6K

= USP Fang Light Fighter
The USP Fang is a standard Talon that has been retrofitted with additional armor and a more powerful secondary backup defense system. As alays, the USP invulnerability system is unique in its field and, if used properly, will let you take out anything else in the universe.
Cost = $8K

= Gencore Phoenix
The Gencore Phoenix is the main advanced Gencore Solo Fighter. It's an extremely reliable craft that can take a good deal of punishment. Standard on the Gencore Solo Fighter line is the new particle redefinition technology, which allows you to materialize extra armor on your outer hull. PIlots are warned that the system is easily triggered and it completely drains your shields.
Cost = $12K


= Gencore Maelstrom
The Gencore Maelstrom is a refined Phoenix with an additional 2cm of main hull. It also features deluxe plush seating with extra wide armrests and synth velour lining. Standard on the Gencore Solo Fighter line is the new particle redefinition technology, which allows you to materialize extra armor on your outer hull. PIlots are warned that the system is easily triggered and it completely drains your shields.
Cost = $15K


= Gencore 2
This craft is the result of Gencore raids on key Microsol research facilities following the recent conflicts in the Asteroid sectors. Taking an existing ship design, Gencore retrofitted it with an advanced armor design and power couplings, resulting in a more economical but worthy fighter craft. This design radically improves Gencore military effectiveness.
Cost = $17K

= MicroCorp Stalker
Microsol. What more do you need to convince you that their Stalker Solo Fighter is the ship you want? Not so fast though. You'll pay a hefty premium for this ship or have to fill out a stack of forms two feet high. With its dense hull alloys and overall excellent defensive capability,
you'll sleep safer at night with one of these on your side.
Cost = $20K


MicroCorp Stalker-B
Microsol continues the Stalker line with the Stalker-B. This is the deluxe model preferred by Microsol's own Outer Scouts. It's the ship of choice for those long, solo flights. The Stalker-B adds an additional 2 structural units with its refined alloys, for an unheard of 28 SUs in a solo craft.
Cost = $25K


Prototype Stalker-C
TOP SECRET: The quest continues for the strongest ship available with the most powerful backup defense systems. This is one of the only ships in existence with 3 defense bays! An additional SU has been added to the armor value of this ship, and Microsol has retrofitted a Gencore auto-repair system into each ship, making these the definite superiority fighter!
Cost = $50K


The Stalker 21.126
After destroying the tyrranical might of Vykromod a second time, Trent found himself locked into the future through the Stargate. But that's another story. Now, though, he has returned with his modified Stalker C to reclaim his past. The Modified Stalker is equipped with an advanced molecular generator which simulates many conventional weapons. But, it also has the power to
instantly generate any one of a number of side-ships and front attachments. It's the power of the future.
Cost = $30. Once you complete the game with this ship it becomes worth $65,535.

= Storm
The Storm is an older model fighter from the Bontoria War which erupted about 220 star-years ago. Unique at its time, it was the first starfighter equipped with an experimental phase shift technology which rendered the craft impossible to hit. In later years, Microsol acquired the technology for its somewhat popular USP craft series. Unfortunately, it required critical extra
space, severely limited the size and weight of the craft, and required excessive energy boosts.
Cost = $5K


= SuperCarrot
The SuperCarrot FoodShip 9 is one of the most advanced edible fighters ever produced. You can't go wrong with a Foodship! Foodships are usually complemented by either the Hotdog Mustard spread Technology, or the dreaded SuperBanana Bombs.
