What kind of non-weapon combat-related equipment is available?
An abundant melange of equipment exists for gathering intelligence and information about other players and their ships. Due to the strategic nature of combat, any kind of intelligence regarding the enemy can be vital. This applies as much to knowing how to outfit your ship to engage a familiar foe as it does in how to execute your plans during the actual heat of battle. Electronic warfare plays a large role in combat. For example, if you have the ability to jam your opponent’s weapons or prevent him from warping away, you can fend off his attempts to do the same to you.
