Characterization

The Khaorons are among the most feared warriors of the galaxy. Their quest for glory and honour in battle awards them an almost legendary status as masters of war and combat. From battlefields on the grounds to those in deep space, their weapons strike hard. A number of Khaoron battleships have so-called cloaking devices granting them tactical advantages at predatory attacks. Their vigorous industrial forges process a countless hoard of raw materials, keeping their resource-hungry war machine running. Hunters guarantee the population's food supply. However, all things not directly serving the purpose of battle and conquest are of minor importance and often neglected. The Khaorons consider espionage a cowardly and dishonorable pursuit, but they are nonetheless willing to defend themselves against foreign attempts.

Special buildings

Prison Camp
The prison camp is used for forced labor on the fields to get more crops and food supply. It is a little damaging on the overall morale since working conditions are not set up to any standard whatsoever.

Mining Prison
A warrior would die before being taken prisoner, but many aliens are not warriors at heart. The Mining Prison is for these. If they wish to live in captivity, they can spend their lives mining deritium for the Empire. Eventually, all Khaoron labor in the mines will be replaced by these criminals.
