Large Roster of Fighter Craft
The most significant new element is a wide selection of fighter craft available for players to select. Each craft has differing attributes:
| Attribute | In-game Abbreviation | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Movement Speed | MOV | This describes a fighter craft's movement speed. Higher ratings denote faster movement speed. |
| Attack Power | POW | This attribute describes the overall attack damage of the fighter craft. |
| Defensive Spread | DEF | This attribute applies only to the arc of spread that a fighter craft's primary weapon covers in front of it. |
| Rapid-fire Capability | RPD | This attribute describes the rate of fire of the primary weapon of a fighter craft. |
All standard fighter craft possess a primary weapon, which is a vulcan gun. They are equipped with two secondary weapons, a Laser weapon and a Missile weapon, made usable by collecting the appropriate power-up items. Only one secondary weapon can be active at a time. Each secondary weapon has four levels of power.

Famous quotes containing the words large, fighter and/or craft:
“If the hero is not a person, the emblem
Of him, even if Xenophon, seems
To stand taller than a person stands, has
A wider brow, large and less human
Eyes and bruted ears: the man-like body
Of a primitive.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“A pleasant smell of frying sausages
Attacks the sense, along with an old, mostly invisible
Photograph of what seems to be girls lounging around
An old fighter bomber, circa 1942 vintage.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“As a man-of-war that sails through the sea, so this earth that sails through the air. We mortals are all on board a fast-sailing, never-sinking world-frigate, of which God was the shipwright; and she is but one craft in a Milky-Way fleet, of which God is the Lord High Admiral.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
