It skims across the planet surface but is unable to fly at high altitudes or to venture into Space. It is light-weight and can travel incredibly fast. It is highly agile, however requires skill and quick reflexes in order to avoid crashes. It is the fastest way to travel around on planet Falcon. Despite it's inability to travel into space, it is a popular ship on other planets due to it's low cost, easy maintenance and high speed and maneuverability. ----- Designation: S02 Name: Marauder Built by: Blue Falcon Ship Building Corp First produced: Year 20 / August 1980 # of Parts: 999 Dimensions: Width: 54.5 studs / 17.2 inches / 43.6 cm Length: 41.9 studs / 13.2 inches / 33.5 cm Height: 11.7 studs / 3.7 inches /9.4 cm Maximum Crew: 2 Range: 10 Speed: 3 Agility Level: 2 Standard Shield Level: 3 Standard Weapons: 12x wing mounted lasers Options and upgrades: Shield upgrade package, Engine upgrade package (Increased speed), Computer assisted flight & navigation package.

It is difficult to fly, slow and not very agile. It has poor shielding. It's strong points are that it has a very long flight range and a large array of laser weapons that can create a wide barrage of firepower. It is reliable and easy to maintain but has no internal cargo hold. Cargo can be attached and carried externally to the underside of the ship. Early editions had very basic computer controls - with no navigation assistance, auto pilot, auto landing or auto docking. ----- Designation: S03 Name: Athena Shuttle Craft Built by: Blue Falcon Ship Building Corp First produced: Year 30 / June 1981 # of Parts: 297 Dimensions: Width: 17.1 studs / 5.4 inches / 13.7 cm Length: 25.8 studs / 8.1 inches /20.6 cm Height: 26.0 studs / 8.2 inches / 20.8 cm Maximum Crew: 2 Range: 8 Speed: 6 Agility Level: 7 Standard Shield Level: 3 Standard Weapons: 8x Wing-mounted Lasers Options and upgrades: Colour variations, extreme weather package.

The Blue Falcons designed the Refueller to carry and supply rocket fuel, gases or liquids to other ships and planets. Some refuellers are kept in permanent orbit around planets and moons whilst others make regular shipments between planets. They have a very long flight range allowing them to remain in space without any servicing for long periods of time. They are completely unmanned and are operated either by remote control or by automated computer control. They travel very slowly and require considerable time in order to change direction or flight paths. They have no weapons but are well shielded. Other ships help defend the Refuellers against pirates, thieves or attackers. ----- Designation: S07 Name: Robot Deployment Ship Built by: Skaylors First produced: Year 59 / November 1983 # of Parts: 439 Dimensions: Width: 18.0 studs / 5.7 inches / 14.4 cm Length: 29.8 studs / 9.4 inches / 23.8 cm Height: 10.4 studs / 3.3 inches / 8.3 cm Maximum Crew: 8 Range: 6 Speed: 5 Agility Level: 7 Standard Shield Level: 5 Standard Weapons: 2x Lasers Options and upgrades: Extreme Weather Package Purpose & History: The Skaylors built this ship in order to transport robot squads and materials, to assist with the building of their Space Station.

The ship resembles the original Galaxy Explorer but has been massively upgraded with newer technologies, allowing much improved speed, range and agility as well as multiple new weapons systems to help protect them from future altercations in deep space. The ship became a popular workhorse for both the Golden Eagles and Red Stars as it can carry a decent amount of cargo or crew. ----- Designation: S09 Name: Interceptor Built by: Skaylors First produced: Year 77 / May 1985 # of Parts: 362 Dimensions: Width: 24.1 studs / 7.6 inches / 19.3 cm Length: 26.2 studs / 8.3 inches / 21.0 cm Height: 10.8 studs / 3.4 inches / 8.6 cm Maximum Crew: 0 Range: 5 Speed: 8 Agility Level: 10 Standard Shield Level: 6 Standard Weapons: 6x Lasers Options and upgrades: Range upgrade package Purpose & History: After the Skaylors discovered that there are other inhabited systems with large fleets of fighter ships, they saw the need for their own fighter fleet. The only purpose of these ships is to seek, intercept and destroy. The ships are reasonably well shielded but their real strength is their insane speed and agility. Without human pilots they have no requirement for life support systems, and need make no consideration for G-forces. Due to this - the ships are able to perform moves which would not be possible for ships with pilots onboard. ----- Designation: S10 Name: Scorpio Built by: Angel Bridget / Vigilante First produced: Year 93 / September 1986 # of Parts: 2875 Dimensions: Width: 30.5 studs / 9.6 inches / 24.4 cm Length: 66.2 studs / 20.9 inches / 53.0 cm Height: 19.1 studs / 6.0 inches / 15.3 cm Maximum Crew: 40 Range: Unlimited Speed: 10 Agility Level: 1 Standard Shield Level: 10 Standard Weapons: 2x Lasers Options and upgrades: The interior can be altered to optimise for either crew or cargo missions Purpose & History: Feeling pity for the plight of the group known as Vigilante, the Angel Bridget intervened and gifted them with several highly advanced technologies. One of these technologies was a large ship called Scorpio. The ship does not appear to require any fuel - giving it an unlimited flight range. It can travel faster than any other known ship and it's defence shields have never been penetrated. It has poor agility, however this is not really an issue as there is no requirement to flee from attackers due to the shielding. Many people would like to acquire this ship and study it's technology, making it a high-priority target. Vigilante make extra effort to avoid detection at all costs - even if this means taking much longer flight paths. Unlike most other ships which were mass produced, Scorpio is a one-of-a-kind unique treasure shrouded in mystery. -----
