Also, the special quality of a weapon only works in the hands of a member of the native species of the weapon. the exception to this is armor, which can only benefit wearer's of the native species.
In short, the Species of Universal Universe are a proud bunch, and stick to using weapons of their own heritage.

UNIVERSAL EQUIPMENT
The following list of equipment can be used by any Species without penalty.
BSF Requisitions: All Field Agents are equipped with a free Cell phone and 2 doses of Doc Pepstein's Healing Tonic.
Cell Phone (200)
This is the standard communication device of the cosmos, and can help you make long distance calls across the cosmos. Each Species has their own look and design for the cell phone, with Robonoid Cell Phones being small and thin and sleek Mango Corporation devices. Cromags, however, have hand held stone devices with mystical runes carved in the center that have elemental spirits of the wind that carry the messages through space, etc. At the end of the day, though, Cell phones all do the same stuff, no matter which species made them.
Doc Pepstein's Healing Tonic (100)
Drinking this popular elixir will immediately remove the Shaken condition. Furthermore, roll 3d6. If this result is equal to or higher than your Toughness score, you heal one Wound. Each raise above this heals an additional wound.
THE BSF BADGE
When a Cadet completes their Training Mission, they are granted the title of Agent. This is a milestone for Field Operatives, and none ever forget the experience. New Agents are taken to the BSF Shipyards on the Moon, where they have a ship created for them before their very eyes. They first voyage of this ship is to the Queen's Castle, where they are given their very own BSF Badge by the Queen herself in a very proper ceremony, attended by the Queen and all of her Knights. Such festivities are broadcast live on Television, and seen by trillions of envious onlookers throughout the galaxy.
More than just a simple shiny trinket in a leather wallet, the BSF Badge is a magical relic handmade by the Queen of the Galaxy herself. Those who earn such a rare and coveted item are also entitled to rare perks and benefits. Some of the notable abilities of the Badge are presented below.
Superior Construction: The BSF badge is made of a special gleaming material known as Royal Silver. The Badge is indestructible, and being at the center of a nuclear explosion wouldn't so much as scuff it.
Homing Beacon: The BSF Badge also acts as a general homing Beacon that gives you a sense of any other fellow Field Operatives within a radius of about 10 miles of your position.
Soulbound: BSF Badges are each made specifically for the Agent they are issued to. Each Agent chooses a unique 5 digit serial number that is inscribed on the Badge. No other being in the Universe, save the Queen of the Galaxy herself or a Field Operative of Higher Rank can pick up a badge owned by another Field Operative. A BSF Badge can never be lost, and always ends up in its owner's pocket even if thrown out of an airlock into space.
The Queen's Protection: Once per day, the owner of a BSF Badge can make a Soak Roll for free without spending a Benny. Furthermore, the Badge protects the wearer from any and all abilities, powers and spells that would take over the Field Operative's mind or cause them to commit evil deeds. Any such ability immediately fails.
Mark of Authority: Brandishing the BSF Badge opens a lot of doors, and the vast majority of beings in the galaxy who aren't totally evil are likely to cooperate with any questions or reasonable requests made of anyone with the Badge. Flashing the Badge can grant access to pretty much any institution, facility, or building in the Galaxy.
REQUISITIONS
As Field Operatives of the BSF, you will gain access to cutting edge technology and powerful items to aid in your missions. At the end of every successful Case File that you complete, all players gain 1 Requisition Point that can be spent to acquire many special items. Some of these more common items are one use, but more expensive ones can be quite costly, but are very effective (and permanent). More Requisition points can be earned for completing Case Files in creative ways or going above and beyond the call of duty, though generally, no more than 2 Requisition Points should be given to each Field Operative.
The following list are some examples of the more common equipment that Field Operatives have access to. Note that only Operatives of Agent rank or higher gain Requisition Points. All Requisition items are unique, and a Field Operative can only have 1 copy of each on their person at any given time.
The Queen's Card (1 Requisition Point, 1 Use)
This glimmering card has one use and can be used at any time to immediately replace the card you drew for Initiative with the Queen's Card, which acts just like a Joker card.

This simple looking mallet can be used to immediately destroy any physical object blocking your path, and can save quite a bit of time in a pinch!
Skeleton Key (2 Requisition Points, 1 Use)
This ancient looking skeleton key can immediately bypass any physical lock or password protected computer.
Hazard goggles (1 Requisition Point, 1 Use)
Once used, this ring protects the wearer from all environmental hazards for 24 hours. This allows the user to endure a toxic atmosphere, or even survive the vacuums of space, or breathe underwater.
Resurrection Kit (3 Requisition Points, 1 Use)
This handy device can be used to bring any being who has been dead for less than 24 hours back to life. This does not work on those who have died from natural causes.
Birthday Cupcake (1 Requisition Point, 1 Use)
This celebratory cupcake is yummy and delicious. Eating this will immediately remove the Shaken condition and heal one Wound.
Birthday Cake (2 Requisition Points, 1 Use)
This yummy treat will immediately remove the Shaken Condition and heal the imbiber of all damage.
Language Manual (1 Requisition Point, 1 Use)
Reading this lengthy digest will teach you a language of your choice without roll.
Benny Dispenser (2 Requisition Points, 1 Use)
When activated, this small dispenser grants all player characters within 5 feet of the device 1 Benny.
F-5 Eternity Pistol (5 Requisition Points, Permanent)
This prototype sidearm was developed specifically for Field Operatives, and is a Universal weapon that can be wielded by any BSF Operative regardless of their Species. This weapon deals 2d6 Damage, has an Armor Piercing value of 1, and has an unlimited clip of ammunition (hence the nickname "Eternity Pistol"). Once per battle, the wielder of this pistol can spend a Benny to automatically hit with this weapon without rolling.
