'''Technology of the Erhud'''
Due to the lack of u271 or uranium on the planet, the warfare on the Ehrud was of a more personal nature. Due to the religious strictures on the killing of another, it was enforced that if you were to kill a man
you must be able to witness the leaving of his s'doom (light)in his eyes die with him. Thus most of the weapons technology is concerned with personal and short range combat. The one engagement that was observed by the crew of the USS Newton was a singularly bloody affair when seen from the perspective of the almost bloodless phaser technology.
There were 2 great masses of people that approached each other across a field that looked as if it had been the site of many more of these  engagements. They stopped approx 20 yards from each other and both parties knelt to receive the blessings of their priests. They then stood and with a blood curdling howl charged each other with ''phyk blades'' (see index for description) and ''takkens'' flashing in the sunlight. In a matter of moments the superior force took control of the field and the lesser started to retreat. There is no concept of mercy in the hearts
of these people for those that they consider heretics. Imagine the spanish inquisition of our history for an example of how they treat non-believers. Once the battle was complete there was just a clean up
performed by the priests where they gave last rights to those of their faith while killing those that were not.
'''Technological report for the Ehrud'''
*'''Military:''' Not much in the way of ranged combat but can give the Klingons a run for their money in hand to hand. This is slowly but surely changing due to their contact with the Ferengi. When the Ferengi were first encountered they lost severely due to the lack of ranged weapons. Once the Entvik people started arming their people with ranged weapons it was merely a matter of time before the Hej and Deskokoloi had to match pace or be overwhelmed by the Entvik.
*'''Domestic:''' Minimal due to the overwhelming military production of war time. Most domestic technology is of the grade of approx a 20th century city. Most have running water, electricity, and sanitation. They all have military skills due to the high rate of attrition due to the wars.
*'''Medical:''' Very high medical technology. Being at war for 400+ years will make your medical techs very proficent. Combat triage and medical advances equal to our level of advancement.
*'''Social:''' Mass transit and transporters. The Entvik have a form of slave control that is utilized by placing a microchip inside the brain where one of the persons with a device can either stimulate the pleasure sensors or the pain sensors in the brain. It is unknown if they can translate this tech to different species or if it is specific to the
[[Species: Nalguran|Nalgurans]].
As far as ship technology goes we have to assume they aren't very advanced in long range weapons due to the fact that until the last forty years they were really against not being able to see the light go out in an enemy's eyes when you kill them. With them having only discovered warp fairly recently it is speculation on my part that what ever weapons and sheilding they have has been given by the Ferengi. I speculate that they
were given this technology for a percentage of the profits from the mineral rich planets.
