This thread is for all of the Prothesian technology. Lets start with their mainline starship: Prothesian ExplorerExplorer at FTLThe Prothesian Explorer is the mainline Prothesian starship. It is about 350 meters in length, 120 meters in width, and has 14 decks. It is fast and agile, due to its design and its unique form of Sublight Propulsion. It forms a field behind the ship, and this field "pushes" the ship away at varying speeds, depending on the power given to the Field Generators. It is largely unknown how this exactly works, and the information is highly classified by the Prothesian Navy. Its FTL drive works by folding the fabric of space, allowing the ship to travel great distances. The ship is armed with 6 Phase Projectors, 4 of which are mounted just above and below the Main Deflector Dish. The other 2 are mounted on the aft end of the ship. Phase Projectors project a beam of phased particles in a straight line, meaning the ship has to be facing the target to fire at it. They are capable of dropping shields quickly, but are quite weak against hulls. It has 1 Phase Array which runs along its saucer section. The Phase Array works similar to the Phase Projectors, but instead it is capable of firing anywhere in the front of the ship. It is also equipped with 2 Plasma Torpedo launchers, one on the tip of the saucer section and the other on the aft of the ship.

Prothesian Multirole ShuttleA Multirole in Combat ConfigurationMultirole Shuttles are large shuttlecraft that can be easily configured for any situation. The three configurations are Combat( Shown above), Exploration, and Cargo. The Combat Configuration features more powerful weapons, a better shield generator, and thicker armor plating, though it is slow. The Exploration Configuration has improved sensors, is considerably faster, and is more well-equipped for scientific missions. Its weapons, shields, and armor are weaker however. The Cargo Configuration has most of the ship turned into a cargo hold. Its weapons, armor, shields, sensors, speed, etc. Are more balanced. However, because of the fact that most of the ship is a cargo hold, the maximum crew compliment is only 2, whereas the other configurations can easily support 4 or 5 crew. Its main armaments are 2 Phase Projectors, one on the aft and one on the "nose" of the ship. The Combat Configuration has a Light Phase Array running across the top of the ship. It uses standard Warp Drive for FTL, as it is to small to a Fold Drive. Its sublight propulsion is also standard impulse drive, though the Exploration Configuration is equipped with special "Impulse Thrusters", which allow it boosts of speed for short periods.

Looks kinda Star Trekish. That's because it is. I ripped it from Star Trek Voyager.

Aeon-class FighterA newly constructed Aeon Mk. IIThe Aeon-class Fighter, sometimes called a "Screecher" due to the noise its engines make, is the mainline Prothesian Fighter. It is capable of performing both in-atmosphere and in space, though it is more agile in space. The Mk. I was ill-equipped for fighting in-atmosphere, and thus was replaced by the Mk. II, which features enhanced engines, weapons, and armor. However, for atmospheric combat the Aeon had to be stripped of most of its systems, such as shields and FTL. However, despite this the Aeon is still a deadly fighter. While executing dives in-atmosphere its engines tend to make a loud screeching sound, thus earning them the nickname "Screechers". Its armor is made of a special composite material that is both light but strong. Its main weapon is a nose-mounted Phase Projector, as well as a small missile launcher capable of firing a tracking Plasma Missile. An Aeon scouting a Class-7 Vortex Anomaly

Prothesian Heavy Assault WalkerStandard/Default ConfigurationThe Prothesian Heavy Assault Walker is a massive ground unit used by the Ground Enforcement Division(GED). Despite popular belief, the Assault Walker was not actually designed by the Prothesians. Instead, it was designed by a race the Prothesians once fought called "The Kavaal Hierarchy". They stole the designs for the prototype Assault Walker and began producing it. The walkers were able to destroy most Hierarchy resistance. The Assault Walker, along with several other stolen Hierarchy designs, allowed the Prothesians to win the war. The Assault Walker is equipped with a large Plasma Beam Cannon mounted on its left arm. The weapon fires beams of plasma at its target, capable of burning through armor and disintegrating infantry. On its right arm is a large claw which can be used for crushing enemies. The Assault Walker has extremely thick armor and is powered by a Fusion Generator in its chest. The pilot controls the vehicle via Neural Interface, sitting near the "head", which also functions as a Sensory Node. In one case, an severely injured Prothesian General who was known for his many victories was "linked" to an Assault Walker, effectively "transferring" his consciousness into the Walker. The Assault Walker is also capable of being configured in several ways. There is the Default Configuration, the Defense Configuration, and the Siege Configuration. The Default Configuration is made mainly for full-frontal assault, and is usually deployed directly on the front-lines. The Defense Configuration has a large shield generator mounted on top, which projects a shield over a wide area. However, this particular configuration has less powerful weapons and has little armor, and enemies can also simply walk through the shield. Thus, the shield is mainly for protection from long-range bombardment. The Siege Configuration has a large Plasma Cannon mounted on its back, which is capable of firing long-range bolts of plasma.

Hey I recognize that mech. It's from Universe At War. So is the Heirarchy.

NOOOOOOOO! I've been found out!
Anyway, yes. Universe at War is epic, especially the Hierarchy. Specifically, Commander Orlok. Badassery at its finest. I'm probably going to give the Prothesians a lot of Hierarchy stuff, just because it looks awesome.

Then they make mutant cows, which proceed to wipe out Novus.
