Artifact Data
"Obviously manufactured using advanced
techniques, this pre-collapse engine is small
enough to put on any current ship, and provides a
level of power and efficiency unmatched in modern
designs."
"Although very rarely found, this type of precollapse
engine is a very valuable find indeed.
With the ability to fit into the very common size 2
engine mounts, but provides a level of power only
seen in size 3 systems. Coupled with a high
efficiency, a pair of these engines could result in a
very fast ship."
"Another artifact engine, this model exhibits a
number of technologies seen in the modx type
artifacts. Basically this results in an engine with
great power and excellent efficiency."
"While this pre-collapse piece of technology is not
much more powerful than modern designs, its
efficiency is far greater. This means that the power
plant requirements are much lower to use this
engine compared to other size 5 engines of similar
power."
