Tips
  • Slugs have superior psychic development, allowing them to see adjacent rooms clearly on their own ship.
  • They can sense enemy crews on other ships, providing valuable intelligence.
  • Slugs are immune to Mind Control, a significant advantage in certain situations.
  • Their abilities make them perfect for operating inside of nebulas, where electronic Sensors (radar (your minimap with nearby blips and threats marked) - a display showing ship proximity and detected objects) often fail.
  • While otherwise similar to Humans, Slugs require more experience to upgrade a Skill (a specific ability or stat).
  • Be aware that Slugs are obsessed with making money and are often greedy and deceptive.
