P1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Turanic Raiders. The first enemy encountered in the single player game
(Mission 2) after they've destroyed the Kar Selim. They are a carrier-based
race and also feature in Mission 4 and the bonus level "Raider Retreat".

P2

The Kadeshi. The inhabitants of the nebula half way through the single player
campaign whose Motherships resemble tadpoles. Originally part of the refugee
convoy of Hiigaran exiles, they decided to settle in the relatively safety of
the nebula rather than continue the journey on to Kharak as the Kushan (R1) did.

Not directly encountered in the single player game although their Megaship
makes an appearance at the end of the game as one of the council members.

Traders

The Bentusi. They offer to sell you ion cannon technology in Mission 4. Whilst
technically they only have one ship in the game, the Traders race ends up
hosting a lot of other miscellaneous ships used in the game (e.g. the Ghost
Ship; Junk Yard Dawg; Research station).
