The Fascists’ fleet features advanced technologies such as cloaking and so-called Glory Devices. Instead of showing pure combat strength they rely on a high amount of beam weapons and a great range which allows missions deep in enemy territory. Part of this high technology fleet is a general immunity to planetary attacks that allows a better execution of the fascists’ special mission ‘Pillage Planet’ which destroys a certain amount of planetary structures while beaming up money and supplies from the planet’s surface. This race specific mission paired with stealthy ships and a great range make the fascists the ideal guerilla race that rather aims at the opponent’s economy instead of using brute force like carrier races do in the planets universe. With their relatively weak ships (in terms if firepower) the fascists are however masters in minesweeping and can, if used in the right combination bring up a respectable amount of destruction to an enemy fleet. The two Glory Device ships, the Saber and D19b Nefarious Classes have multiple uses, can detect any enemy cloaker, bring one minehit to all enemy ships at this position, destroy planet structures and convert amorphous worms into supplies. Fascists sometimes open the game very aggressively by intruding with their D7 Coldpain Class Cruisers, their economy becomes weaker during the middle phase of the game and again very late in the game the Fascist Empire finds a certain advantage in their planet immunity, when the fighting power of starbases becomes more imminent.

In campaign games the Fascist Empire can choose between a great set of additional ships and race abilities, one of them being the double beam recharge rate which means they can fire twice as many times with their beam weapons as other races. With the D7b they get a very low tech Glory Device which can be used to flood the enemy with feared self destructable ships. The Little Pest Light Escort becomes cheaper than it’s predecessor while loosing the ability to tow while the Medium Transport is an enhancement especially in the cargo size. The D3 Thorn Class gets several enhancements with its siblings, the Frigate and the Cruiser, making both very respectable mid-size ships. The Deth Specula Class Frigate receives a mass upgrade, while the Stealth version of this ship allows an intercept mission that brings the ship back to cloak after combat – a very powerful weapon. In Terms of firepower the the D19c is the more economic version of the famous Glory Device ship, while the Saber Class Shield Generator enhances all ships’ shields at the same position. In addition to the fascists’ pillage mission they receive a second unique economic advantage with the Armored Ore Condenser for faster mining.
