Ashtanga

The Anti-spiral battle ships, shaped like enlarged thumbs, they are surrounded by black arms, and several grey Buddha like faces with three green jewels in the main head's forehead. Each have a probability negation shield, an ability to hide in subspace and to fling planets by unfolding their multiple arms. They carry small fleets of similar ships shaped like hands and feet, who act deceptively slow in order to catch the enemy off-guard.
