---Ship Format---
Creator: Cheesy
Type:Hyper Mover
Price: 1,500,000
Shields: 2,000
Primary Weapon: (only include if other than the default)
Scanners: (only include if other than the default)
Cargo Holds: 200
Equipment Bays: 16
Max speed: Very Fast (about the speed of the Mechant Cruisers second wepons effect)
Turning: good
Thrusting: good
Energy Regen: ok
Warp Fuel Efficiency: 10 fuel per hop
Special weapon/ability: Side Thruster
Fired/Activated by: Tab key
Energy usage: Equal energy to fireing two nukes
Effect: Shoves the ship to the left
Limitations/properties: Only works in space
Sales Pitch: Finnally a fast moving transport! get your resources and wepons from place to place without sacrificing speed, and can quickly avoid enemy fire with its side booster and out run them. Not practical for invading or fighting due to its sad sheilds so no abuse of the speed!

A far-fetched one
Creator: Blacknova
Type: The Virgo
Price: 10,000,000
REQUIREMENTS: 50 million exp
Shields: 16000
Primary Weapon: any
Scanners: any
Cargo Holds: 250
Equipment Bays: 8
Max speed: 10
Turning: 10
Thrusting: 11
Energy Regen: 10
Warp Fuel Efficiency: 7 per hop
Special weapon: And explosive tracking bomb - slightly more damage, but the same size as the photon torpedo, but lock onto laser cannons and enemies within a certain radius - if there is nothing close, it will explode on a planet, or a planet wall or something.
Energy usage: 500 per shot
This special ship would be only available to a handful of players, and give a real reason to aim high, and gain a large empire.

i like the idea of a "super flower" for tokens... I also think that you did a great job by making the ship a non issue as far as combat is concerned. I do have a question about it though:
if you die do you get a refund (like 750 tokens?) if so, how many tokens? if not, then make it faster so people can avoid combat.

humm buggy? i don't mean to want to correct you, or make you mad in anyway but what is a emeror? you wrote that several times. if you had writen emperor one time i would've understood but since you wrote emeror everytime i am not sure what you mean.
and also what is a emeror order? talking about the special weapon here.
