Star Conflict 1.12.1 Secrets of the Precursors. Stage two



The entire universe is hidden in the smallest particle of cosmic dust, and every ship that is born in the fires of solar flares carries a tiny portion of the universe.

The path is not predetermined, it reveals itself to the ship just as the constellations reveal themselves to the astronomer’s sight. It cannot be captured with all the weapons of the galaxy, it can only be learnt by embracing infinity.

In the infinity of space, where the battlefield spreads beyond the Earth’s horizon, Dao becomes not just a philosophy but a guiding star. It teaches that no ship can travel faster than the speed of light, but in the winds of speed, being torn between stars and black holes, each pilot discovers their own, personal path.

Understand Dao, and then your ship will become a part of the constellation, and you yourself will become a part of the infinite harmony of the universe.

Unique rank 17 engineering frigate “Salamander”





The prototypes of the first Salamander-type frigates were developed in 4623 by a group of engineers who had once left the “Outpost” Shipyard and set up their own private company. The “Blackwood” shipyard, known for its quality, was chosen as the production contractor.

The ship’s main feature is the use of numerous unique systems developed from scratch specifically for Salamander. The complex of this equipment seriously increases the engineering capabilities of the frigate. The outline of the ship captures the image of frigates of the past from the Federation civil war.

Like its ancestors, Salamander has excellent speed and mobility, which allows it to move quickly across the battlefield, without giving the enemy a chance to intercept it. And a special modification will seriously strengthen the ship’s shield and hull resistance at maximum speed.

Currently, the UMC has signed a contract to test a large batch of Salamander-class frigates. Every interested mercenary will be able to get the new ship for themselves and try it out in battle. There are rumours that the Armada representative office is already interested in the frigate, although they haven’t officially announced it.



Special ship part

  • Required for the production of the ship.
  • Can be obtained as a reward in the “Secrets of the Precursors” event.

“Kongmíng” control system

  • Autonomous control system.
  • Controls the “Kongmíng” autonomous drone. Operates in three modes:

    • Shield restoration mode. The drone follows its ship and restores the shield to the owner and all their allies.
    • Repair mode. The drone follows its ship and restores the hull for the owner and all their allies.
    • Defence mode. The drone remains stationary and deals thermal damage to enemy ships.

“CFER-24” nailgun

  • Kinetic weapon.
  • When hitting an ally, it enhances all shield and hull restoration effects.

“Kongmíng” manual controls

  • Active module.
  • Switches control to the “Kongmíng” drone. In this mode, the ship remains stationary and increases the resistance of the shield and hull. The drone restores the hull to all allied ships, and all enemy ships lose radar range.

“Event-24” Horizon Module

  • CPU modifier.
  • Increases firing range. Reduces damage. The “Kongmíng” drone can shoot at the enemy in manual control mode.

Adaptive polarizer “Salamander”

  • Shield modifier.
  • Increases shield and hull resistance to all types of damage when the ship is flying at maximum speed.

A Meeting



Interstellar space. Unidentified space body orbit



“Over the past three millennia, people got used to living in a cage. First, the Earth was such a cage, then the Solar System. Now all the systems of the galaxy have become cages. No one even tries to find out what is hidden far from the eyes, in the interstellar void,” the man thought, looking from the observation deck at what was breaking out of the rules imposed by old ideas and thoughts.

It was impossible to tell whether it was an orphan planet or a small star, since linguists and scientists couldn’t agree. A huge imperial ship and its crew watched as its satellite retreated into the distant expanses of space. It hasn’t left the orbit yet, but it was just a matter of time. However, it was as if time didn’t exist in this place, since there was nothing relative to which it could be counted.

The captain of the ship was distracted from contemplating space by the voice of the duty officer, “Comrade general, we noticed a flash of hyperspace transition according to the signature indicated in the order.”

“Great,” the captain said with a slight smile, “open the docking gateway 35-B, prepare the engines for launch. Don’t turn on the warp core. Transmit a signal in ten astronomical units, saying that I’m waiting. Locate the target, provide a live corridor to the flagship.”

The Jericho frigate flew to the indicated gateway, without turning on the weapon. The general’s enemy was flying to meet him. Soon there were echoing footsteps on the ship. The visitor didn’t take off his spacesuit, it’s hard to say whether he could have done it at all. It was almost impossible to understand where his numerous implants ended and the living flesh began.

“So, here you are,” the general took a deep breath, preparing for a long conversation, “I've been waiting for this for a very long time. However, as you understand, I wanted to see this conversation differently.”

The captain came to the table and sat down, while the guest took the opposite place.

“Yes, and I wanted to see my nameless enemy in chains,” the Jericho man said honestly, “but if you hadn’t stood in my way, I would have achieved my goal and freed them. And then we would become their servants. You know their history, right?”

“I know,” the general replied, recalling the horror he learned about the Galaxy’s previous masters, “but their tools are even scarier. I saw what happened to your ship. Even in anger I couldn’t imagine such a thing. But this is the past. We’ll have to accept their legacy to stop these creatures from awakening. Soon the Signal will enter full power. Then our fight will be lost before it starts. I hear that your agents got the Key to the gate.”

“Otherwise, the traitor would have got it,” the guest said, looking at the general opening a bottle of dry red wine, “since you invited me to this meeting, do you want to use the Families in your plans?”

“Or help you. I want to destroy them. You’ve been pursuing the same goal for the last few years. You have the Key, I have the Sleeper,” said the ship's captain, “together our fleets will disable the enemy ship’s main systems before it has time to awaken. My Third Intelligence won’t allow the Revenants to deploy any active measures.”

“It still won't be enough,” the Jericho man replied, drinking wine for the first time in many years, “We need tens, hundreds of thousands of small ships to destroy the enemy’s support fleet. Biomorphs can help their former masters. The reaction of the crystallids will be unpredictable. Besides, we won’t be able to keep the operation a secret.”

“And we won't even try,” the general said, “we will involve the UMC in the operation, there should be enough of them to close some of the gaps in the formation. We also need to get Pavlov. Most likely, he will be able to neutralize some of the enemy weapons. In the meantime, I suggest saving up strength and using all the possibilities for this.”

“Our forces may still not be enough,” the guest remarked, “But I agree, we definitely can’t delay it. If we’re late, warp storms will cover the sectors, tear our supplies to shreds, and the former masters of the Galaxy will regain their power. Only one thing is missing — blueprints of Forerunner structures and outline materials.”

The general turned on the screen and showed an image of the orphan planet’s satellite from the orbital reconnaissance probes. The surface of the celestial body was covered with gray dust mixed with ashes.

“The necessary blueprints are already there,” the captain said, “previously there was life on this planet, but judging by the sensor readings, the Precursors destroyed it completely, using some sort of terraforming equipment. Their cache is now located here. Its coordinates were listed in one of their hiding places ten parsec away from Earth. According to the same data, here you can find some of the materials we need.”

“Then we have every chance of defeating them,” the Jericho man said, “The Precursors bet everything that we’ll decide to return their power over the Galaxy to them. But I don’t understand at all why the Key exists.”

“They were not one people, just like us,” the general said, “but we’ll discuss this later. Now I’m waiting for your formal answer: will you gather the Families? Will you help me open the Precursor storage?”

“Yes,” the Jericho man replied, smiling for the first time in a millennium and a half, although no one could see this smile.

Star Conflict: Guardians of the Universe. Jellyfish





This bundle includes

  • Federation interceptor Jellyfish.
  • 3 slots for Seed-chips.
  • Unique decor “Sputnik”

Special bonus for everyone who buys the bundle — Premium license for 30 days!

Immediately after the start of the new invasion, the Atlantic Alliance ordered the development of a new ship to combat Aliens. The project was executed by the Outpost shipyard. Developed in a few months, Jellyfish can be called one of the best creations of Outpost engineers.

The new plasma web is capable of placing the enemy ship into stasis. This feature allows Jellyfish to destroy any enemy in the shortest possible time. Bite and kill — that's the motto of this ship!

Several factories are engaged in Jellyfish production at once in order to fulfil huge orders from Federation corporations. Outpost shipyard management contacted UMC and offered its services. Now every mercenary can get the latest covert ops interceptor.



Star Conflict: Guardians of the Universe. Veils





This bundle includes

  • Empire gunship Veils.
  • 3 slots for installing Seed-chips.
  • Unique decor “Sputnik”.

Special bonus for everyone who buys the bundle — Premium license for 30 days!

The latest AK-20 Veils fighter was developed in the laboratories of the New Empire. The ship is designed to effectively wage war with Aliens on the periphery.

Designed from scratch, the Indra-T reactor significantly increased the power of system overcharge, and reinforced armour will withstand thousands of hits.

Currently, the New Empire has supplied more than a hundred of these ships to its army, as well as sold several shipments of Veils to the Northern Empire. Thanks to a new contract with UMC, mercenaries can order the new fighter to fight Aliens.



Star Conflict: Guardians of the Universe. Langsax





This bundle includes

  • Long-range Jericho frigate Langsax.
  • 3 slots for installing Seed-chips.
  • Unique decor “Sputnik”.

Special bonus for everyone who buys the bundle — Premium license for 30 days!

Because of the new Alien Invasion, the Sentinels developed the long-range frigate Langsax. After forming their own defence units, they sent several ships to the Mendes and Liu Families. Having estimated all advantages of the new ship, Mendes bought blueprints from Sentinels and started their own production.

The frigate is equipped with new Needle-SM torpedoes, which do not leave a radioactive cloud but reduce the resistance of the target to thermal damage.

Currently, the Mendes family has a contract with UMC and any mercenary can order the frigate. The first ships bought are already aimed at fighting Aliens.



When purchasing multiple DLCs, the time for premium licenses is cumulative.
