The Corpus units encountered in Empyrean gameplay are unique variants, and are listed below. All units, except for Aurax units, ramsleds (including Comet Shards), and jamming specialists (Optios/Tarask Bursas), have a prefix indicating their region of operation: Taro for Venus Proxima, Axio for Neptune Proxima, Vorac for Pluto Proxima, and Orm for Veil Proxima. The Taro/Axio/Vorac/Orm variants also have different colour schemes, but otherwise have identical characteristics (with the exception of Crewships, which have additional defences and abilities in more advanced regions).
