Suntek
Sunteks are survivors from the Colombus, a colony ship lost in space in year 2113, these former humans had to survive on a radiated planet until they were rediscovered in the 23rd century. They live in space suits their entire life. They are extremely vulnerable to normal air but developed exceptional skills in engineering life support equipment - a prime need on planets and in space.
Sunteks also discovered an energy source on their planet - similar to some kind of solar technology, hence the name - and are also the only ones to know how to use it. As Elindos has put it “if you have no Suntek, you are headed for special surprises with their technology.”
The only two Suntek cards in the Alpha edition are both ships, "The Colombus" and the Akhen Cannon. The former is also Civilian and therefore accessible to players without a Suntek. The latter is not.
A Suntek Radiated Survivor card was given away as part of a March promo.
They are also part of the achievements rewards with the Colombus.
