| Spirits are uniquely identified by their distinctive tuning fork shape. Each "arm" is a troop deployment pod capable of hosting a number of soldiers, while the main cockpit is located at the rear of the ship, and a [[heavy plasma cannon]] is mounted below. The space between the two troop bays can be use to carry vehicles and other equipment. Some Spirits are equipped with [[gravity lift]]s to deploy troops without risking opening their troop bays.{{Ref/Reuse|waypspirit}} | | Spirits are uniquely identified by their distinctive tuning fork shape.
