Impulse Drives are propulsion devices used by Ships to travel at sublight speeds and are also the main energy generating devices onboard a starship. Both Human factions use the same styles of engines while the alien K'luth use engines based of their own unique organic technology. Dreadnoughts and Stations use a special heavy duty version of normal drive called capital drives which produce more energy but are very expensive.
