Formal Affiliation: League

Bipedal humanoids with two eyes and ears, plus one nose and mouth. Humans vary in eye, hair, and skin coloring from very light to very dark and range between 1.75 and 2 meters tall. Humans, in general, seem to be governed by a mixture of instinct, emotion, and logic, with the latter influence frequently being overcome by the first two and varying greatly with personal beliefs. Humans can be thoroughly good, thoroughly evil, or anything between.

Humans came late to the original Alliance of Free Stars, but were the originators of the New Alliance that defeated the Hierarchy and won the last war. Star Control was a Human institution even before the first Alliance, and later formed the basis of the space forces of the League of Sentient Races.

Primary Weapon: moderately powerful forward tracking missiles

  

Secondary Ability: weak point-defense lasers

  

The Crusier is the pride of the human fleet. It is best utilized at a distance from the target while firing its auto-tracking long-range tactical nuclear missiles. It is also very effective at close range with its point defense laser; however, at medium ranges, just outside of the reach of the point defense lasers, the Crusier's missiles may not be able to lock-on in time to intercept an enemy. Vessels with powerful medium-range weapons will be extremely effective at exploiting this.
