Enhanced Inertial Damper Field
The Console - Universal - Enhanced Inertial Damper Field is obtained from the Hirogen Hunter Heavy Escort (Hirogen Lock Box, Cross-Faction Tier 5).
Game Description[edit | edit source]
Hirogen vessels sometimes use enhanced inertial dampers to perform maneuvers that would otherwise be too taxing on a starhip's systems. They require a large amount of weapon power though, and therefore cannot be constantly active. Performing a sudden maneuver can give a Hirogen vessel tactical advantages, suddenly turning the tables on pursuing foes and potential targets.

- Special Ability:
Photonic Decoy Swarm
The Console - Universal - Photonic Decoy Swarm is obtained from the Hirogen Apex Heavy Battlecruiser (Lobi Crystal Consortium, 800 
, Cross-Faction Tier 5).
Game Description[edit | edit source]
Hirogen Vessels are able to baffle enemy sensors by creating a series of Photonic Decoys which create "ghost" energy and hull signatures almost identical to the vessel that deploys them. By launching several of these Decoys at a time, the effects are enough to frustrate most enemies into letting their guard down, allowing the attacking Hirogen to gain tactical advanatage in any conflict.
