The EFE has some of the most sophisticated and unique technologies in the galaxy. Using stolen data and technology information from almost all of the major governments, in conjunction with their own resources, has yeilded highly-developed technologies. Instantaneous travel, ComNets, cams, and many more, are what FORCE uses instead of sheer numbers: quality versus quantity. |

Farcasters |
|
|
|
The Farcaster is FORCE's version of the widely-known transporter. Discovered accidently during the develop of the Hawking Drive, the Farcaster, as you can guess, uses aprroxamately the same principals. It punches a hole through the space/time contimum creating a shimmering green portal that allows instantanous travel The only con is that it requires large amounts of power, therefore has a rather limited range. It is stealthly, cant be blocked by any type of inhibitors and is completely safe. The traveler merely steps through one side and ends up on the other. |

Fluidic Armor |
|
|
|
Fluidic armor is rather rare amongst infintry units, however, is the most practical and often-used defensive system in the Marine Corp. It wraps around the body and acts as a personal cloak, communications system, access to the tactical datasphere, complete system readouts, and other qualtites that multiply the individuals battle effectivness. It also reflects 80 percent of energy weapon energy back to the assaliant and can absorb nearly all the damage caused by projectile weapons. It also contains impact absorbers and bio-mechanical accelerators to increase strength and speed. The Fluidic Armor is the most versatile and advanced battle-equipment in the FORCE Military. |

Virtual Cloak |
|
|
|
Using anti-magentotrons, the phase cloak creates a type of subspace bubble around the vessel of choice. Once done, the vessel appears to have disappeared and is no longer affected by external influences. This is not entirelly correct. In physics, the strange property of "virtual" particles, that are neither existing nor nonesisting has remained a puzzle for many centuries. Although FORCE doesn't know exactly why the vessel with virtual cloack suddenly exhibits "virtual" properties, they still have the ability to produce the effect. This is a key strategic advantage since nothing can detect the ships existence, since in essence, it doesnt exist. |

Stealth Grid |
|
|
|
The stealth grid is vital to all FORCE missions. It incorporates the latest in stealth technology with some new modifications. The stealth grid includes the following; 8 virtaul cloaking devices (in case of failure), sensor scramblers, transmission jammers, silent running, thermal masking, nuetron surge collapser, and other assorted stealth techonologies. |

Hawking Drives: MarkI and Mark II |
|
|
|
The Hawking Drive is named after the ancient professor Steven Hawking of the 20th Century. Stephen Hawking did revolutionary work in the area of blackholes which is the definitive factor in the Hawking Drive, hence its name. Its the main source of interstellar propulsion and is placed on almost all starships. The drive systemm literally "sucks" energy from nearby large-bodies of matter such as nebulas, planets, and stars. It then uses that energy to create an artifical, and much smaller, temporary blackhole, following that, the ship slinghshoots itself off the blackhle giving it near Warp 10 velocities. The new Mark II Version is available on all military vessels and will be implaced on most civilian shortly. The Mark II creates, using almost the same technique, an artificial and temporary wormhole, cutting distances to almost nothing, allowing near-instantanous travel. However, power is a major concern and because of its constraints, multiple jumps may be required to reach the target destination. |
