The federation has been outfitted with technology from across the entire galaxy to aid it's soldiers in the war against the Scarabs.
All of the weapon and armor types are unique and have different strengths and weaknesses.

Armor types:

Jumpsuit: This elastic suit is made mainly for non-combat situations. Each crew member of each star fleet is outfitted with a jumpsuit colored to match their field.
Green=Infantry
Cyan=Planetary Scout/Colonizer.
Grey=High ranking official (Admiral, Commodore, General.)
Yellow=Technician or Science officer.
White=Medic.
Red=Pilot.


Standard federation armor: This suit of dark blue armor is made by the Federation technicians on Terra. The armor is made to withstand up to three shots from a plasma or energy based weapon before it breaks.
The armor is divided into individual pieces: The armgaurds, the Shin guards, the breastplate, helmet and anti-fog visor with uni-com link, gloves, and boots. A suit of black waterproof material is worn under the lightweight armor. The visor of all Federation armor is built with a scanner that can pick up heat even underground.

Federation Stealth Recon armor: This black armor is very lightweight and a tight fit. It offers very little protection from projectiles, but serves as extra padding against blade type weapons. The helmet of this armor is suited with a gas mask and a night-vision visor.

Federation Goliath armor: This suit is more along the lines of a mech suit than armor. The armor itself is a mech with a glass "windshield" where the head is. A soldier opens a hatch on the Goliath Armor's back and climbs inside the cockpit, then slides his arms and legs into the holes for the arms and legs. The Goliath Armor's arms have mounted gatling guns and surface-to-air missiles. The Armor is highly resistant to most plasma based attacks, and can only be piloted by high ranking pilots.

Rotian armor: The reptilian inhabitants of Rotia have donated their armor technology to help create more durable armors. The Rotian suit is made out of a heavy and durable material that's almost impossible to break.
The legs, shoulders, top of the helmet, and elbows are tipped with long spines that can be used to kill an opponent up close. The visor of the helmet has no uses other than to keep dust out of the user's eyes.


Weaponry:

Rotian Saber (Blade type weapon): A plasma based sword that can cut through just about anything.

Lunis shock spear (blade type weapon): A spear with two durable wires at the blade end that deliver enough shock to paralyze and even kill an enemy in one hit.

Pistol (Long ranged): A small, semi-automatic gun. It's designed to only shoot one bullet at a time, but can fire as many times as the user can pull the trigger after loading it.

Assault Rifle (Long ranged): A large standard issue rifle that fires three bullets per shot. The rifle is built with a scope that can magnify anything by 10x. This gun contains armor piercing bullets.

Sub Machine Gun, aka SMG (Long ranged): A fully automatic rifle that spews bullets for as long as the user can hold the trigger. The gun isn't all that accurate, and the aim begins to "walk" upward after firing for a while.

Shotgun (Short ranged): A highly effective rifle that fires a shell containing 8 rounds. The rounds spew from the barrel in a cone shaped pattern. Hitting an enemy at close range with this weapon will kill it instantly. This gun takes a long time to reload though.

Sniper Rifle (Long ranged): A powerful rifle with a scope that can magnify something by 50x. This gun will kill almost anything instantly, but takes a long time to reload. The user has to wait 2 seconds before he can fire another shot from the rifle.

Rotian Rifle (Plasma based)(Long Ranged): A plasma based, fully-automatic rifle that fires chains of hot energy at an enemy. The gun has no scoping abilities and can't hit a target more than 200 feet away.

Rotian Plutonium launcher (Long ranged): A large gun that fires rockets of plutonium at an enemy. The rod makes a large explosion on contact with anything it hits. This weapon takes a while to reload and can only contain one rod at a time.

Frag grenades (Grenade): A grenade that can be thrown into a group of enemies. The grenade takes 1 second to explode.

Plasma grenade (Plasma based) (Grenade): A grenade that can be thrown at an enemy. One the grenade touches something after being thrown, it ejects several hooks that anchor it to a target.

Lunis Arc Caster (Electric): This machine takes a while to heat up, but when it does: it surges a group of enemies with a strong current of electricity . This gun doesn't take ammo, but overheats when fired too much and has to cool down.
