Metar summary:
Capital world: Cadimus Prime System, Cadimus II (desert and dust planet), Al-Deta system, Al-Fadir (enviroment very similar to that present on Cadimus II with small exception: very small resource deposits), Hrim system, Hrimfraxi (ice world, which has significant deposits of Talgonite)
Interstellar flight: yes (organic starships, also used as their colony cores when being at planet's surface)
General characteristic: brutish raw force, no mercy, nonlogical actions, organic, disguisting alien lifeforms, determined survivors
General tactics: very quick and strong, long and short range attacks, swarming the enemy, from time to time, sometimes, even their leader attacks - Metar Ras, generally - all possible tactics

Background:
Well, if you read texts from previous pages you should know pretty much what exactly the Metar is, but in case you hadn't, I'll just have to repeat that. Metar is, saying using short terms, the big badness, great evil, unusal and bad character. How they came to exist, of course, no one knows. This is that kind of race as you might remind organic species from 'Voyager' series (I forget their real name, damn it, so far I remeber it was a 4 digit name, and the first was an 8). The Metar uses organic material to create structures, vehicles and starships. The consistence of organic material is the same as from the Metar being are created, thus everything of them and everything they create, simply lives. A fascinating and frightening combination. How they create this material in order to use it as a resource, is purely unknown. The name Metar does not belong to them, however. It's a shortcut of two names: Met and Are: Met-Are -> Met-Ar(e) -> MetAr -> Metar, named by the Federation. Every encounter with them ends in battle. Their goals always oscillates around destructon of everyting that in not them. Why? It's an another question without answer. Metar orginates from Tabula Rasa's systems. It seems they were first to 'colonize' these worlds, maybe they were even born there, so they treat any visitor as a potential threat. Their motives are unexplained (as everything related to them). Metar units are the state of the art of biological evolution. They're fast, maneuverable and fires devastating pure energy. They have an ability to adjust their bodyforms to the other kinds of weapons they encounter. During single generation, Metar might become very strong opponent (if not invincible). They also have curious ability to temporary create a static in any scanning device (e.g. tricorder), which seriously makes the hard time for anyone who wants to track Metar unit(s). Only death of such 'interferer' will restore scanner's previous functionality. Many of you might think the Metar looks exactly as their units does, but it's not true. You see, they are similar to organic species from 'Voyager' or rather they are similar to their counterparts' habits. They are organic Dying Metar vehicleand they're normally entering their organic vehicles ('body' of vehicle contains body of MetaMy imagination about Metar being (male Metar pilot with mask worn)r pilot - besides, here is my imagination of such potential look of Metar pilot with the mask on his face). As for a proof, here is a screenshot showcasing the bridge of Metar starship. It is is built of organic material, yes, but it also have instruments, which allows to contol ship's subsystems like in normal vessel. So the Metar vehicles are not the outlook of the Metar beings. The creatures lives in strange societies, more precisely in a subterranean societies. The leaders of Metar are called as 'Metar Ras'. Metar leaders - Metar RasOnce one of their children is under attack all neigbouring Metar knows exact location of the aggressor. So the mind of Metar is a swarm mind. Metar warriors are born in the underground hives and when grown-up they emerges from gigantic, organic portals up to the surface. Wheter Metar has two sexes, I really don't know, but  such possibility might really exist, they have to procreate in some way (or maybe they have three sexes (male, female, which can't go pregnant and the third sex - female host - which only can go pregnant. Perhaps yes, perhaps not.)). During Tabula Rasa war, Metar beings emerges only inside their vehicles. The portals are virtually inpenetrable, but what interesting, thay can be captured. The second Metar building is the modified Metar starship, which when landing and anchoring in the ground, it is transformed into colony core. Such mobile Metar colony core - transformed from Metar starshipcolony core can left the planet anytime. The source of Metar's unnatural power comes from ambient energy of normal space, space, which surrounds every normal planet. When the that 'link' is severd, Metar rapidly weakens and in result dies. The war with Hubrin severed that link. Metar were forced to choose: to hibernate in stasis chambers in their underground hives or die. But someone have to maintain these fields and this is why they created the Taubat - genetic slaves, but not genetic copies of Metar itself. The first starship, which encountered the Taubat was Federation vessel - 'USS Explorer NCC - 1966'.  Finally, when Hubrin allied with the powers from Alpha Quadrant, they formulated a plan to stop the Metar. The Hubrin were deeply concerned about Metar rapid exit from dormancy, so they proposed to build a special containment pillar (which was originaly used to seal Metar worlds, but since Romulan starhip 'Melak' accidentaly opened the anomaly, everything have to start again). Ultimatelly, the Anomaly Device worked, but it also sucked colony commander (and his colony), who's colonial forces triggered the activation system of the pillar, as it was only possible to trigger AD from the planet where the device lied. The only way to escape Tabula Rasa Metar armadanow was to capture a Metar craft (colony core), which also worked. Colony commander managed to escape and returned to the Alpha Quadrant, but ironically, 'thanks' to this event, commander gave Metar what they truly desired: an exit from sealed space. Shorlty after crew beam-out from Metar starship, the craft exploded (somehow it's engines condition was fatal, probably, because of subspace transition) and opened the way to anomalous systems. After that, an armada of Metar starships immediately emerged from an anomaly wormhole (but how did they manage to not damage their own engines??? I still don't get it.). The fate of Alpha Quadrant remains (in point of New World's view) unknown, because outro sequence clearly suggests that we should expect the second part of the game, which was never created and which will never be created.....


Metar ground forces (from weakest to the most powerful):

Metar Bur (armed scout of some kind):

Metar Dea (typical 'tank' plus mentioned before 'interferer'):

Metar Ras (effectively deadly, very fast firing Metar's variant of 'advanced photon artilley' vehicle):

Metar (evoloved) summary:
Capital world: Cadimus Prime System, Cadimus II (desert and dust planet), also vast colonies on: Bezouk system, Bezouk II (type 6, red, dust planet), F'Thorc system, F'Thorc A (dark, bleak and volcanic world), Tybalt system, Tybalt Major (M class, temperate, forest world)
Interstellar flight: yes (organic starships, also used as their colony cores when being at planet's surface)
General characteristic: brutish raw force, no mercy, nonlogical actions, organic, disguisting alien lifeforms, determined survivors
General tactics: quicker and even stronger, long (Metar Advanced Snipers are able of destroying quite any kind of building within 3 standard shots from great distances, also a lot of Metar Naks encounters) and short range attacks (Metar Advanced Yat, improved previous Metar Mobile Shield Generator), overwhelming the enemy (Metar Burs, a lot of Metar Burs), Metar Ras attacks very frequently, more 'interferers' - Metar Deas; generally - improved Metar tactics, much improved
