Boarding craft and a dedicated ram-and-board hull are in development. The approach, the marines and getting them home all belong to the same fight. This pass is built and awaiting playtesting.
Repair work is expanding around finite supplies, replacement parts and a large support tender with service drones. Keeping a damaged ship alive and rebuilding what is missing are different jobs. The new pass still needs playtesting.
Ideas, votes and replies are open without an account. Optional passkey identities keep a callsign and service record. Fleet Command responses stay attached to the original discussion.
