5. How your ship works

There are many different types of ships, but they all work in the same basic way. Each ship is equipped with shields and armor for protection against attack. Most ships have weapons and cargo holds, and some have configurable hardware. Each ship has a "speed" measured in turns per hour. They all can move from sector to sector using the local map or using the current sector view and all ships have a course plotter. This section will give you information on how your ship works for these basic functions.
