Xenotech
Flexive Materials
Velan drone structural elements are more akin to cartilage than modern metal frames, capable of flexing when required and remaining rigid when necessary. Similarly they tend to fail gracefully, bending and warping instead of outright fracturing under extreme strain. Although not fully reproducible by human industrial techniques using interlocked cages of these combined with conventional structural connectors can provide lighter and more effective structural reinforcement.

Velan worker and warrior drones do not have internal reactors, but instead receive power from dedicated 'mothers', and store it in sophisticated nanostructured capacitors. The high energy density makes them a compact alternative for reactors on small ships and other parasite craft.

Eridanus hybrids use a superior technique based on 'frozen photons', made possible with dust. This has substantially higher energy density than 'conventional' sponge batteries, suitable for more energy-hungry craft using shields and particles.

Basic Theotech
Crossphase Power Conduits
An application derived from quantum computational technology, Crossphase Power Conduits use metric editing technology to 'shift' electrical power into a phased state, allowing greater energy transfer rates to be achieved without the corresponding need for better or larger superconductors. This translates into a net increase in available power due to efficiency savings.

Theta dust can make catapults that are far more compact and dust-efficient than delta designs, reducing the required industrial base and allowing for greater secrecy.

White Point Transduction Manifold
A virtual star, a White Point Transduction Manifold functions like a miniature white hole encased in hyperdiamond. Separated from its otherwise immense mass, the manifold serves as a power font. While more efficient then T-Forced Fusion by its nature, it is difficult to extract additional power from the manifold beyond a certain point, as such increases produce a corresponding localization of the manifold's mass. White Point Transduction Manifolds running on overclock produce an intense field of pseudogravity and will effectively increase a vessel's mass, resulting in difficulty performing evasive maneuvers. (rules wise: Reactor can run in overclock, producing 1.5% normal power, but also creates a -0.XX evasion penalty)

Decoherence Sabre (Omega Edge) Peel 12:24, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Planar segments of 'valence armour' can be adapted to project an inverted forcefield a short distance beyond the edges of the material. Adapted for destruction, this has the opposite effect to conventional valence fields and serves to weaken binding forces. When used on an edged weapon design, the combination of material weakening and hyper-reinforced blade produce fearsome cutting power (read: cleave and brutish).
