Modular Fortresses

Fortress
EXTREMELY large, powerful, and expensive defensive structure. Mounts modules that can be unlocked and also repairs all nearby ships.
Note that there are significant differences between the 4 types of Modular Fortresses, including which modules they can mount.
Modular Fortress (Human): The only Modular Fort unlocked with Knowledge, can mount most types of modules but the more exotic modules will not fit. Also repairs nearby units.
Neinzul Modular Fortress: A possible reward for completing an Ancient Shadows Nebula, this unit mounts can mount organic Neinzul type modules. This unit also cloaks and can grant cloaking to nearby ships the same as the Cloaker Starship.
Spire Modular Fortress: A possible reward for completing an Ancient Shadows Nebula, this unit mounts can mount the heavy Spire modules. Also mounts an extremely powerful Spire Beam main weapon.
Zenith Modular Fortress: A possible reward for completing an Ancient Shadows Nebula, this unit mounts can mount the Zenith beam modules. Also mounts an extremely powerful Energy Wave main weapon.
Also see Fortress, Mini-Fortress, and SuperFortress.

Fortress Modules

Acid Jet Module Acid Jet Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressAvailable on Neinzul Modular FortressNot Available on Spire Modular FortressAvailable on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Zenith Acid Sprayer's weapon. Low base damage, but extremely effective against exotic-material hulls.
Paralyzer Module Paralyzer Module
Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressNot Available on Spire Modular FortressAvailable on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Zenith Paralyzer's weapon. Incapacitates targets for several seconds.
Polarizer Module Polarizer Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressAvailable on Spire Modular FortressAvailable on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Zenith Polarizer's weapon. Low base damage, but extremely effective against targets with lots of armor.
Impulse Reaction Module Impulse Reaction Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressAvailable on Spire Modular FortressAvailable on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Impulse Reaction Emitter's weapon. Low base damage, but extremely effective against targets with high energy use.
Heat Beam Module Heat Beam Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressNot Available on Spire Modular FortressAvailable on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Zenith Heat Beam. Hits up to 9 targets on a line, each with the full power of the beam.
Nanosubverter Module Nanosubverter Module
Available on Human Modular FortressAvailable on Neinzul Modular FortressNot Available on Spire Modular FortressNot Available on Zenith Modular Fortress
A modular weapon that does reclamation damage.
Insanity Inducer Module Insanity Inducer Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressAvailable on Neinzul Modular FortressNot Available on Spire Modular FortressNot Available on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Botnet Golem's weapon. Low rate of fire, and totally ineffective against units immune to reclamation, but instantly overrides the target's programming so that it attacks your enemies instead
Translocator Module Translocator Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressAvailable on Neinzul Modular FortressAvailable on Spire Modular FortressNot Available on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Translocator's weapon. Lacks damage bonuses against specific hulls, but warps targets to a different location. Some targets (generally large ones) are immune to translocation.
Doom Accelerator Module Doom Accelerator Module
Available on Human Modular FortressAvailable on Neinzul Modular FortressNot Available on Spire Modular FortressNot Available on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Neinzul Youngling Vulture's weapon. Its damage increases against targets that have already taken damage. Against a target with 90% or higher health it does 10*base damage. Against more heavily damaged targets the damage keeps going up until the maximum of 90*base damage against targets with 10% or lower health.
Photon Lance Module Photon Lance Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressAvailable on Spire Modular FortressNot Available on Zenith Modular Fortress
A modular version of the weapon preferred by many Spire capital ships and fortifications. Fires a coherent beam of light for two seconds that strikes all enemy units in its path. Cannot be re-aimed during firing, so moving targets often escape the full force of the beam. Targets that fail to evade suffer tremendous damage.
Rail Cluster Module Rail Cluster Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressAvailable on Spire Modular FortressAvailable on Zenith Modular Fortress
A modular array of rail-cannons. More powerful than standard human sniper railguns, but without the infinite range.
Rail Cannon Module Rail Cannon Module
Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressAvailable on Spire Modular FortressNot Available on Zenith Modular Fortress
A modular rail-cannon. More powerful than the weapons found on standard human sniper units, but without the infinite range.
Plasma Siege Cannon Module Plasma Siege Cannon Module
Not Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressAvailable on Spire Modular FortressNot Available on Zenith Modular Fortress
A modular weapon that fires enormous bolts of condensed plasma at large and/or immobile targets. When the bolt explodes, it also damages several nearby units for reduced damage. If it hits a forcefield, it will also damage up to 25 units protected by that forcefield (or forcefields near that forcefield) with 6.25% of the damage done to the forcefield.
Flak Module Flak Module
Available on Human Modular FortressNot Available on Neinzul Modular FortressNot Available on Spire Modular FortressAvailable on Zenith Modular Fortress
A fortress-mounted variant of the Flak Turret. Very effective against many lighter hull-types.
Bomber Bay Module Bomber Bay Module
Available on Human Modular FortressAvailable on Neinzul Modular FortressNot Available on Spire Modular FortressAvailable on Zenith Modular Fortress
An integrated production and launching facility for very-short-lived bomber drones.
