	* The [[Gorbie Class Battlecarrier]] is your main hammer weapon. It is the biggest carrier in the game, but is a gas hog. In Standard, the Gorbie is able to ~~send and receive fighters using the Starbase~~ Fighter Transfer mission. This is incredibly useful in getting fighters to where you want quickly. When you don't need the fighters, you can send them elsewhere. Sending fighters after a Gorbie has arrived at its destination can also save fuel, which can be crucially short for EE.		* The [[Gorbie Class Battlecarrier]] is your main hammer weapon.

	* The [[Super Star Destroyer]] is a feared weapon and usually a desired trading ship by other races. The SSD is deadly in combination with a cloaker. A cloaking ship can arrive at a planet with an SSD which is out of fuel. Since the SSD is out of fuel, ships will not attack it, and since it has planet immunity, a NUK friendly code on the planet will not be able to attack it. The next turn, the cloaker transfers fuel on board the SSD and the SSD drops its 10 clans, capturing the planet. This attack is very difficult to defend against.		* The [[Super Star Destroyer]] is a feared weapon and usually a desired trading ship by other races. The SSD is deadly in combination with a cloaker.

	If your fleet has an SSD, you can avoid setting [[Combat_Order\|Primary Enemy]] to attack the enemy planets. If an opponent wants to defend their planet, they are forced to use the ATT/NUK friendly codes before you do the Imperial Assault mission, and/or defend with ships with Primary Enemy set. When the enemy has PE set, you get [[VCR#Left_Side_vs_Right_Side_Advantage\|Left-Side Advantage]].

Even if you are far away from each other, you can use Pl21 probes to quickly establish a starbase in each other's region of space and build ships for each other (Gorbies at a humanoid base, LCCs at ghipsoldal).
