Phase Coil

A Phase Coil is the primary propulsion component of any Trident Foundries-built Warp ship.

Description
The Phase Coil stores and discharges energy to tear a hole into the fabric of space. The craft then uses the Phase Coils to regulate the energy output to expand space in front of the craft while contracting it astern. This allows the craft to break the light speed barrier without actually going over light speed.

Some starships, such as the Solaris-class, keep their extremely fragile Phase Coils hidden behind heavily armoured doors until they are used.
