-=== ADNR ===+====ADNR ====
 [[materials:adnr| ADNR (or Aggregated Diamond Nanorods)]] is a moderately weighted allotrope of carbon that is easy to produce in large quantities, even in the absence of metals, and is an ideal 'cheap' armor material for many factions with low budgets or less advanced materials science. While certain producers of the material have been confirmed, it is likely that many more exist. [[materials:adnr| ADNR (or Aggregated Diamond Nanorods)]] is a moderately weighted allotrope of carbon that is easy to produce in large quantities, even in the absence of metals, and is an ideal 'cheap' armor material for many factions with low budgets or less advanced materials science.

 [[materials:aerudirn]] is a lightweight organic alloy exclusive to [[faction:iromakuanhe:solan_starworks]] that weighs about the same as structural steel and yet is many times stronger, able to alter its shape and compensate for perforations or large breaches and naturally able to regenerate with time and resources. While one of the more adaptive "Smart" materials, it is weaker than most standard ship-grade alloys. [[materials:aerudirn]] is a lightweight organic alloy exclusive to [[faction:iromakuanhe:solan_starworks]] that weighs about the same as structural steel and yet is many times stronger, able to alter its shape and compensate for perforations or large breaches and naturally able to regenerate with time and resources.

 [[materials:durandium]] alloy (also known as //Andrium// and //Solanium// to Nerimians) is an advanced lightweight alloy that weighs as much as aluminum, but offers several orders of magnitude more protection per square centimeter. Considered ideal for small craft such as fighters and power armors, Durandium is not considered heavy armor because it offers poor protection against the heavy weapons of the time period. [[materials:durandium]] alloy (also known as //Andrium// and //Solanium// to Nerimians) is an advanced lightweight alloy that weighs as much as aluminum, but offers several orders of magnitude more protection per square centimeter.

-=== Nerimium ===+====Nerimium====
 [[materials:nerimium]] (also known as //Hephestium// to Nerimians) is an abundant, super-dense metal that is the primary resource in NDI starship construction. When refined and combined with other mundane metals, such as iron and nickel, it forms a potent armor plating that is effective against all weapon types save for anti-matter. Its major downside is the considerable weight it adds to any unit that uses it in its construction, making it only prevalent on large warships and not fighters and mecha. [[materials:nerimium]] (also known as //Hephestium// to Nerimians) is an abundant, super-dense metal that is the primary resource in NDI starship construction.

-=== Yamataium ===+
 [[materials:yamataium]] alloy is regarded by many as the most advanced metallic alloy ever developed next to Zesuaium. Unlike Zesuaium, however, Yamataium is highly-resilient to damage (it will regenerate its strength over time) and to date is the only alloy capable of resisting the effects of particle disruptor beams effectively. It's very cost-prohibitive to produce and likewise, very expensive. Nerimians call it //Leptonium//. [[materials:yamataium]] alloy is regarded by many as the most advanced metallic alloy ever developed next to Zesuaium.

It's hard to repair damage done to a unit with Zesuaium because of its nature. Zesuaium usage is declining (and OOCly discouraged). [[materials:zesuaium]] (sometimes called //Impervium//) is super-strong, doesn't bend or break, and doesn't conduct electricity and heat.
