| - | Blue nanobites reproduce through consuming a single type of material only. Most blue nanobites used by the Order consume nanite feed and convert into prefabricated blueprints for mass construction. Blue nanobites are the safest to use and do not require any special containment besides annual deviancy tests. | + | Blue nanobites reproduce through consuming a single type of material only.

| - | Green nanobites consume material to reproduce or transform into biological byproducts. These nanobites are typically used for terraforming or bio-engineering and must be checked daily for deviance. Green nanobite infestations can quickly go exponential and extinguish all life on a planet. | + | Green nanobites consume |
| Research and development with green types are typically done on dead worlds so containment breaches are easier to control. Post-terraforming, | Research and development with green types are typically done on dead worlds so containment breaches are easier to control. Post-terraforming, | ||

Green warheads are considered a strategic weapon and are only deployed to sterilize planets. |

| - | Gray nanobites indiscriminately use materials to reproduce and create no useful byproducts. These types of nanobites are used in strategic military applications. | + | Gray nanobites indiscriminately use materials to reproduce and create no useful byproducts. These types of nanobites are used in strategic military applications. Grays can consume blues and greens, making counter-nanite warfare impossible. |
| Containment of gray outbreaks typically require thermonuclear to antimatter weapons deployment at the infested zone. Gray nanobites will eventually go dormant if there are no high energy sources to infest, and can break out again when the area is reclaimed. | Containment of gray outbreaks typically require thermonuclear to antimatter weapons deployment at the infested zone.
