The Starfleet Mod :: Earth Defence Force

Welcome to the EDFIS (Earth Defense Force Information Systems)

On this page you will find yourself with briefings on the new units you will be using out in the field. You will receive all information possible.

The EDF Communications Tower was probably one of the best new additions to the EDF base. Containing everything that the EDF relay bunker has plus more things such as automatic enemy craft targeting and increased radar range. To the newest commander it utilizes the easiest technology that can be most likely the largest help since the finding of the pulse technology.

When the EDF found the pulse technology the EDF Gun Towers had a hard time handling some of the new weapons developed by the EDF scientists. So EDF engineer corps created the EDF Heavy Tower. The Heavy Tower has all the technology used by the standard Gun Tower but has a more concentrated barrel along with a new turret to withstand more recoil.

What you see before you very eyes is the EDF Marksman Howitzer Artillery. Fitted with a special Mortar shell that makes a Huge explosion. The Howitzer is similar to the turret class of out units. Unless the STAB (Stabilized Terrain Adapting Base) part is in the ground it will not fire...Due to too much recoil from the shell being shot.

The ISDF was the worlds greatest superpower during the beginning of the Scion wars, Then they realized they weren't the only ones who knew how to use bio-metal. During many Scion conflicts the ISDF had a hard time breaking through their Gun Spire defenses. So ISDF engineers developed the ISDF Liberator bomber, Ever since Scions were always on guard looking at the skies as well as the ground. When the EDF was formed top brass had never forgotten about their success and left their wondrous work of destruction in the newly developed tech. tree

All bio-metal structures need to be fabricated by a Construction type unit. The EDF uses their Construction Rig to build all of its structures. Powered by a small fusion container near the back of its body this vehicle is able to walk over heavy terrain to create structures wherever there is power and flat terrain.

Famous for its rapid firing missiles planted on a turret located on the top of the craft. The EDF Avenger turns flying aircrafts to piles of scrap quite quickly with its FAF type Silkworm Missiles. Built with Tri V thrusters the Avenger has good stability when using its jump thrusters to get over large terrain.

During the Bio-metal wars The NSDF Razor patrolled the planets the NSDF battled the CCA for conquest. After the Scion wars the Scions showed top brass in the ISDF old Black Dog Razor models they were rebuilding to utalise many powerful weapons for a recon ship. The Scions ended up dumping the project and the newly formed EDF picked up the pieces and went where they left off. At long last the Razor is back on the battlefields and it is ready to take on the new challenges of today.

The most important of all EDF ships, The Recycler. With the ability to roam around the worlds of space looking for a good spot to deploy and being the birth of a EDF base. The Recycler has the ability to make all of the base utilities plus some light base defense and offense crafts. Commanders need to defend Recyclers at all costs as for the Recycler uses up the most bio-metal out of all the ships known in the universe.

Another branch of Base utilities along with the constructor. The EDF Scavenger is a big vacuum on treads. It roams around the battlefield searching for small scrap blobs to suck up then sending it back to the Recycler to be made into a new ship. Scavengers can also deploy on bio-metal pools and extract the liquid to the Recycler for use right away.

The main EDF recon unit, the Thunderbolt. A Small step below the Razor in current times. The Thunderbolt makes up for its weakness for its cheapness and faster bio-metal fabrication time. Its mostly useful when just setting up a base and scouting for bio-metal pools.

This small robot here is the EDF Service Truck. Used to heal base buildings and units. Though unarmed it is almost always seen on the battlefield repairing units. Most Service Trucks are seen repairing base defenses and are essential to take out when assaulting a base.

The EDF Tarantula is a small but effective Low flying light tank. Taking advantage of dual cannons and mortars plus its rocket launcher make it a good attacker. Most commanders like to use these ships like 'annoying little flies' to distract base defenses when assaulting.

Essential for any base without Gun Towers the Rattler defense turret is one of the most important defensive units. Like other turreted vehicles it needs to deploy its STAB hooks into the ground in order to shoot due to its recoil from its miniguns.

The EDF Kaytus is the first Female piloted EDF Aircraft. Some may find ti to be weak in armor but its load out of Dual cannons AND rockets make it a very formidable opponent. The Kaytus is mostly seen In dogfights and rather than base assault.
