Subject: Project Evolution

To all pilots in fringe sectors! Today we are ready to present the results of our latest research. It's a new ship from project Evolution available to pilots at the station ‘Ellydium Theta’ - humanity's first outpost in Alien worlds! 

Free traders who recently visited the Fringe Sectors bring sad news. The alien invasion has reached and the internal sectors of the Metropolises. The destruction is monstrous. Empire forces suffered huge losses, and the population of entire sectors became refugees. Many transport routes have been destroyed. There is no connection with government agencies. Things are a little bit better in the sectors of the Federation, less affected by the Invasion. There, power has been preserved with the support of Armada, which tries to bring some kind of order with a hard hand. There have not yet been any news from Jericho sectors.

Cosmonautics Day

240372bdcbd82137990d638bb6dd.jpg

We wish you a happy ‘Cosmonautics Day’! 56 years ago, the first human flight into space took place. In honour of this event we updated the information screens at the space stations, and space satellites replaced drones. Pilots can complete a special achievement ‘Cosmonautics Day’ and use special holiday missiles (available from April 12). 

 

Ellydium scout interceptor Tai'Kin

The new innovative ship, which Ellydium shipyards presented to all pilots of the fringe sectors, is the scout interceptor Tai'Kin. The ship includes all the latest scientific achievements of Ellydium laboratories, which have reached new heights in the development of Alien technology. The ship turned out incredibly fast and maneuverable. 

The ship and its active modules' development was conducted by Dr. Matthew Gilmore, head of the mysterious andhighly guarded ‘Science Complex #2’ of the Ellydium Theta station. And it was supervised by Conrad Dimeni himself. Tai'Kin became the first ship that could fully use the unimaginable properties of singlet bosons for changing space-time. 

 

Ship cabin

The cabin is the most important component of the ship. To build the ship, pilots first need to manufacture a ship cabin and obtain Xenocrystals. After construction ‘Ellydium’ ships can be developed from rank 5 to rank 15. Xenocrystals are required for the ship's upgrades.

To build Tai'Kin you need special components, cabin and xenocrystals.

 

Special modules of Ellydium scout interceptor Tai'Kin

Pilots will be able to choose which special modules to use with Tai'Kin. The ship's appearance changes with the selected special module. The following special modules are currently available for research:

Warp Vortex

ef91eb8c307509cf47abceee8280.jpg

When using the special module, the ship teleports a certain distanceforward in a fraction of a second, which allows the pilot to quickly move around the battlefield and suddenly find himself behind the enemy's back. All nearby allied ships along the jump's course get a speed bonus.

 

Return Crystal

adbedeed00ade2b32f6f954c4551.jpg

A unique special module that allows the pilot to use unusual tactics in combat. A crystal acting as a warp-beacon is separated from the ship. When reactivated, the ship with the surrounding area of ??space and even with enemy ships that fall into this area, moves to the beacon. The beacon is vulnerable to ramming. Damage to the ship from the activation is restored. 

 

Jump crystals

8b775ea686143ed69a191fbeb4c7.jpg

Uses energy of special crystals' collapse for teleportation. The pilot can make up to four quick jumps in a row. A cloud is left in the start zone every time, dealing damage. Such unexpected maneuvers allow you to quickly lose a stronger opponent in battle. Jumping crystals are restored after a short time.

 

Quantum Leap

2e11b736ae1d5126b0a503904ff5.jpg

The special module changes the space-time continuum. When the module is activated, the ship returns to that position in the space where it was some time ago. At the same time the state of the ship is brought to the point of time, in which it returned. Effects applied after the return point are cancelled. If the return spot is occupied, the ship only has a couple of seconds to retreat or it's destroyed.

 

Jumping drive

6460893c8e02dcd40dc681229f12.jpg

The module is the quintessence of all the unique developments of ‘Ellydium’. When the module is activated, the ship jumps five kilometers forward. An active zone is left the ship's wake, dealing damage to enemies. The jump point produces a growing cloud, dealing damage to enemy ships.

Special offer. DLC ‘Star Conflict: Evolution Factor — Tai'Kin’

0972066909c3aac5babd3e6b4401.jpg

Just for the holiday ‘Cosmonautics Day’ and the launch of the new ‘ELlydium’ ship we have prepared a unique offer for all Star Conflict pilots — a festive DLC ‘Star Conflict: Evolution Factor - Tai'Kin’. The DLC will be available only from April 11 to April 27 in the official store and on Steam.

 

This bundle includes:

  • Ellydium scout interceptor Tai'Kin 
  • Unique ship decoration ‘Night Stalker’
  • Unique title ‘Apex Predator’
  • A set of unique and rare ship stickers:

    • Crystalline DNA
    • ‘Ellydium’ Skull

 

A special bonus for everyone who buys the bundle from April 11 — 90 days of premium license!

 

Lost Technology. ‘Vulcan’ weapon

‘Vulcan’ is the legendary kinetic weapon from the times of humanity's stellar expansion. It can be mounted on all frigates of ranks 4 to 15. This is a unique kinetic weapon with outstanding features. Its critical hit chance increases as the weapon heats up.

A transport convoy, carrying cargo from an archaeological site was recently attacked. The discovered ancient object turned out to be a repository of old tech from the times of humanity's stellar expansion: weapons, vehicles, modules and terabytes of project documentation. 

It is said that the excavation is headed by a special expedition from Erebus System. According to rumours circulating among the mercenaries, the expedition was very difficult and risky, but researchers believe iridium can breathe a new life into these forgotten technologies. The black market already has parts of ‘Vulcan’ weapons from the attacked convoy and, judging by the strong demand, the hopes for ancient technology are justified.

Deciphering all of the data will take some time, but the unique legendary weapon ‘Vulcan’, which can be mounted on all frigates is available to all pilots right now. During decryption of the data obtained in the expedition engineers promise to recreate not only the weapons or active modules, but also the ships themselves,whose blueprints were lost in ancient times. 

Complete special Broker missions, get the legendary weapon "Vulcan"! Technologies are available for a limited time: get them until 06:00 UTC April 17!
