✦ Military Ships - an Overview. The Military Armada comprises the other half of the Owmi fleet of ships. These vessels are tasked with handling the external dangers the Owmi civilizaton faces. Due to the combative nature of the military vessels, they are equipped with dual power cores to provide extra power to weapons and shields. The military ships are fully crewed. Military personnel do not man the ranks of the civilian ships' peace keeping task forces, there is a strict separation between the civilian armed forces and the military.

These aircrafts are used for reconnaissance and monitoring all directions of space around the Owmi fleet. The military vessels also house the infantry, but this is not a large standing army, as most infantry personnel are kept on reserve status. The Owmi do not find themselves in ground combat often, they do try to avoid embroiling their forces in the conflicts of other societies. Usually these troops serve as escorts for the various missions outside the Owmi fleet: mining, resource location, the location of their next stop, science exploration, etc.	GAME ADMIN Navigation Premise Game Rules FAQ Taken Characters    ✦ Taken A - I    ✦ Taken J - R    ✦ Taken S - Z+ Reserves Applications Player Contact Mod Contact Hiatus Drops EMP/Wanted SETTING INFO New Arrival Info Setting Overview    ✦ Current Location    ✦ Previous Locations    ✦ The Ibere    ✦ The Owmi    ✦ Orakallas    ✦ Garas    ✦ Civilian Ships    ✦ Habitat Station    ✦ Housing    ✦ Leisure Ship    ▶ Military Ships Orakallas Powers    ✦ Gen.
