Ships Reference
Ships are the backbone of your military and logistics. From tiny Spy Probes to the devastating Death Star, each ship fills a unique role. This reference covers all 15 ships available in the game, organized by purpose.
Civil Ships
Civil ships handle logistics, exploration, and colonization. They are essential for transporting resources between your planets, recycling debris fields, spying on enemies, and establishing new colonies. Every empire needs a strong civil fleet.
