Sauran transport vessel-Massive space ship, sometimes referred to as the Mother Ship-shaped like dozens of huge shoe boxes glued together-over eighteen hundred meters long and four hundred sixty meters wide, with a mass of four and one half billion tons-primary use was transport-lightly armed.
Large shuttle-looks a little like the transport, only much smaller-eighty feet long by thirty feet wide.
Small shuttle-fifty feet long by twenty feet wide
Fire arms-Various types and sizes, firing a plasma blast, similar to the ionic shields that protect the ships in flight
Upgrade-Alien med-units can make genetic modifications to most beings, including humans. They can introduce genetic modification and inject nanites, which work with the new genes to repair injuries and can even regrow missing limbs. A full upgrade is quite painful and last for days, but once completed the individual will have far greater strength and speed, in addition to being able to use the biologic comm that is connected to the brain, allowing full communications with all other upgrades. This allows the person to monitor his bodily functions and to direct the nanites to heal minor injuries, while squelching the pain.
Comm system-Perhaps the most potent of all the alien technology. With a genetically matched brain addition, any upgraded human can talk with any other upgrade and operate most alien equipment. The mind functions much faster than current computers. Comm distance between upgrades (without assistance) is approximately thirty kilometers; near the ship it can be boosted out to two thousand kilometers and with the help of repeaters (signal booster) the distance can be many thousands of kilometers-line of sight is preferred.
