Deck is one of the ten basic ship statistics that will define your capabilities in the game. It represents the total space available on your ship for the mounting of active equipment.

It is important that you do NOT confuse Deck with Cargo. Cargo is for storing things, while Deck is for using Weapons, Sensors, Armor, etc.


Benefits

A high Deck will allow you to mount more (and more powerful) equipment at once, thereby making your ship more deadly in combat, more efficient in scanning, heartier in battle, etc. Having researched a weapon capable of destroying a planet doesn't do you any good if you don't have enough space to mount it. Similarly, if you have one weapon mounted, and your opponent has five of the same weapon and some shields to boot, he'll have a decided edge over you in battle (to say the least. You'll probably be dead on the first round. :) Good luck!).

After gaining a preset amount of decks your ship classification changes i.e. 150-199 decks is a "Heavy Frigate" where as 200-249 decks is a "Light cruiser".

Improvements

Deck can be improved by purchasing additional Decks with Rank Points, or by purchasing them using Galaxy Points. (However, the cost benefit is dubious at best, you are likely better served buying energy refills instead.)

Several Artifacts can be used to increase decking, a partial list is:

  • Ship Bot (+2 Decks)
  • Lazuli Parts Vault (+2 Decks, +10 Hull, +10 shield)



Additionally many players equate Rank Points with Decks, and will use these Artifacts solely to purchase additional decks:
