ARMAGEDDON
Designed by Jade
This RPG uses the standard EVO universe, but with totally new governments. Weapons
are for the most part as in EVO.
ALEXANDRIAN---------------Commanded by Jade
Position: Southeast of Miranu land, including some of old Miranu space
Systems: 9 <----- volunteer mapmakers note this please! 
Status: Solid government
Enemies: Raken
Ships:
Alexandrian Fighter - Fast, with standard shield recharge. Heavily armed with dispersal
launcher+4 rockets, pursuit launcher+6 missiles and phase cannons, the Alexandrian Fighter is capable of destroying light fighters quickly with it's superior weaponry, but is lacking in shield recharge and speed compared to light fighters. MED. FIGHTER
Alexandrian Gunship - The equivalent in size of the Lazira. The Gunship is armed with
3 SAD launchers and 2 phase turrets, as well as 2 dispersal launchers and 15 rockets.
It is a noteworthy vessel as it has a high armour rating, giving it an advantage
against Raken ships with their phase weaponry. The Gunship has a fast turn rate for
it's size but lacks the speed of Raken destroyers. LIGHT WARSHIP
Alexandrian Cruiser - The Alexandrian Cruiser is becoming a common sight in Alexandrian
systems now that they Alexandrians have begun to flourish. The Cruiser maintains a balanced speed and is powerful with it's four phase turrets, three SAD launchers+30
modules and 3 dispersal launcher+15 rockets, but they are often feared due to their
fighter bay. The 3 fighters they carry are a dangerous pack, and the combination of
heavy warship and powerful fighters often overthrows unorganised Raken raiding parties.
The Alexandrian Cruiser has great shielding but limited armour.
HEAVY WARSHIP
Alexandrian L.Freighter - The Alexandrians use light freighters to ship every from cargo
to munitions. As their light freighters often hover around the edges of battlefields to
provide weapons supplies to warships they have to be able to survive any stray fire. Thus
they have excellent shields, one phase turret and two phase cannons and a worthy speed
for a freighter. They carry 175 tons of cargo at maximum capacity. LIGHT FREIGHTER
----------------------------
RAKEN
Position: Northwest quadrant of the galaxy - Hrekka, Hizdriar, across to the Rock
Systems: 7
Status: Rebellious group
Enemies: Alexandrians
Ships:
Raken Interceptor - Raken interceptors are extremely fast and have an excellent shield
recharge, although they have less shields than Alexandrian craft. They use 3 swivel phase
cannons and can withstand a blast from a dispersal rocket. They are armed with a pursuit
missile launcher and three missiles as support, although in the large raiding groups they
usually appear in they rarely need their missiles. LIGHT FIGHTER
Raken Incisor - The Raken needed a heavy fighter to provide support to there Interceptors,
which were at a disadvantage against large well trained Alexandrian forces. The Incisor
was developed to perform this goal. It is armed with an SAD launcher and eight modules,
as well as three swivel phase cannons. It is larger than the interceptor but still quite
fast, and yet it lacks shield recharge. HEAVY FIGHTER
Raken Destroyer - A modified Alexandrian Light Freighter, the Raken Destroyer can
certainly put up a good fight. It doesn't have the shields to match the Alexandrian
Gunship head on, though, and it's armanent of 3 pursuit launchers and 20 missiles,
without and dispersal rockets and 2 phase turrets/3 cannons don't really have that
much power. It has speed, and that gives it some power of Alexandrian Gunships.
LIGHT WARSHIP
Raken Carrier - Unlike the Destroyer, the Raken Carrier is actually quite good. It is
huge, nearly twice as large as the Alexandrian Cruiser, and holds ten Raken Interceptors. The basic weaponry includes 3 SAD launchers and 35 modules, as well as five phase turrets.
Despite having more turrets, shields and speeds mean that in a one on one between an
Alexandrian Cruiser and the Raken Carrier the cruiser would win. HEAVY CARRIER
MECCALORE
Position: UE space
Systems: ? - all of UE
Status: Solid government
Enemies: Alexandrians, Relorians
Ships:
Meccalore Viper - The fighters of Alexandria and Raken differ from the Meccalore
fighters somewhat. Alexandrian fighters go for a wide range of weapons, and Raken for
speed, whereas Meccalore fighters go for all-firepower. This makes them difficult to beat
by Alexandrian fighters, who although have a speed advantage, don't have a significant
enough one. The Viper is armed with four neutron cannons and has a lot of armour but
little shielding. The speed of it is lacking, but not terrible. The worst part of it is
the slow recharge rate. When it comes to secondaries Vipers use a needle missile launcher
and are armed with 14 needle missiles. HEAVY FIGHTER
Meccalore Frigate - The Meccalore Frigate fills in the gap in the Meccalore navy where
battleships lack. Thus, the Meccalore Frigate needed a role that the Meccalore people
weren't all together used too - the frigate needed secondary firepower. Before then the
only availble option was the needle missile, which was a horrible weapon used in large
numbers on battleships. The frigate, however, is armed with two neutron turrets, a rocket
launcher+15 rockets and hunter missile launcher+15 missiles. It is still slow, but is a
great advancement to the Meccalore navy. LIGHT WARSHIP
Meccalore Battleship - It takes an awful lot to stop these things. The Battleship is truely ingenious, combining speed with firepower and the light touch with the heavy one. It moves as fast as most light warships, with heavy armour to protect it. It is armed
with five neutron turrets and five needle missile launchers+100 needle missiles. These
Battleships are a rare sight, but they can easily overthrow Alexandrian Cruisers and
Raken Carriers. HEAVY WARSHIP
RELORIANS
Position: Voinian space
Systems: ? - all of Voinian space + Emalgha space
Status: Factioned Government - Factions include Hirojene, Calashe and Aphor
Enemies: Meccalore, Alexandria
Ships:
Relorian Glider - The Relorian Glider is a badly designed fighter as it lacks firepower
considerably. It is faster than the Raken Interceptor, but is definately not a match
for it because it lacks firepower and shield recharge. These Relorian Gliders are
commonly used in large numbers, and even then they are quickly destroy. Their only
weapon is three blaze cannons. LIGHT FIGHTER
Relorian Pincer - The Relorian Pincer Destroyer is an often underestimated craft. Although
they are destroyed very quickly by Meccalore Battleships, they use their speed to outmanuevre Meccalore Frigates and destroy them. Standard equipping on them includes three
blaze turrets, a Relorian Glider bay and three Gliders, and a rocket launcher with ten
rockets. A fast enough shield recharge keeps them alive against the more heavily armed
Meccalore frigates.
Relorian Assualt Cruiser - Relorian Assualt Cruisers form the backbone of Relorian forces.
The Relorian cruiser, unlike the Raken carrier, has an important fighter bay but still
holds position as a proper assualt ship itself. It holds six Gliders, which provide support while not actually being able to do much themselves, and is armed with four blaze turrets, and two swivel rocket launchers+20 rockets. Assualt Cruisers are quite a common sight, and this gives the Relorian's there main strength - numbers.

There are many more governments to introduce, but for now could you tell me what you think?
