The Terrans
The Terrans prefer forward facing weapons and missiles and they usually attempt to keep the player within their cone of fire.
The Terrans prefer a design with classical shapes and neutral colors.

The Mortok
The Mortok do not use bow weapons. Instead, they rely upon turrets, which can fire in any direction. When the Mortok are pursued, they are able to employ a sudden reverse thrust, which will enable them to withdraw from the opponent’s cone of fire.
The Mortok like bulky and rounded shapes. Their ships are heavily armored and therefore, they are not very agile

The Raptor
The Raptor have a special combination of weapons at their disposal: they possess an extraordinary bow weapon that inflicts damage only to shields, and they use a rocket launcher that fires and recharges rapidly to deal punishing damage once an enemy’s shields have dropped.
The ships and the stations of the Raptor typically feature lizard-like shapes.
