"We'll claim salvage rights to the ship and work it up ourselves, since they're willing to issue us a vessel in fresh off their factories with a lot of clauses attached, we'll just fix one they've decided to discard and forget about any of those... Monitoring arrangements.

"But as for the a crew, after being lost and forgotten for so long, the rescue from the deep omegas was unlikely to happen that far from Coalition space, a life changing rescue is one thing we can at least offer them. The choice to go home or to join us is only fair to anyone in that situation, I can never know their personal circumstances at that point but the Platform is about offering that benefit of the doubt first. If they're going to be serving on a paramilitary ship, then they need orientation and protection from assassins and sabotage... An excuse for early monitoring I suppose too. If Volgograd's assembly have decided that those who join under our flag in pursuit of common goals is too far, then the response is the same to any authoritarian giant, we offer refuge to those who willingly admit needing it.

"I've been taking a few things from the teachings of the consecrated archives, a place of shared knowledge and a duty to preserve within the DM, revisiting what I salvaged in the teachings of the Void... in how to traverse her stellar expanse. I've had almost a decade work within the volatile space Thuringia, whilst this region is unforgiving in its environment, it is an archive of past experiments unfinished or functionally dormant. I will go into more development on this later on, but my request to you is for you to host one of our grand advancements on your vessel... You may utilize it at discretion towards the collective goals of the Platform, what I ask in return is readings of Jump-Space during your travels and notifications of anything unusual or anomalous.



"The "Augur" is a device with the goal to decrease the chances of being thrown out Jump-Space breach... We've seen Earhart, these missing ship reports that match the wrecks located in that system could mean our important paramilitary elements could be at risk... But I don't want to stop there, sooner or later we need to stay ahead of these natural disasters if we're going to be running evacuations using natural jump holes. This will likely only be available to heavier capital ship vessels for the moment, highlighting the importance of getting that docking bay up and running to act as a mother ships at a moments notice for tactical wings. It'll map out and read passively information as you traverse jump space, collection information on: Traversal position imbalances, sudden changes of phase-alignment, external environmental affects, and graviton disruptions within the Jump Space passages.

"If you're willing to accept a way for us to study the Void herself, I'll have Tennstedt rally what fabrication labs it can for the "Augur" module, and contact one of our allies on the chances of a dry-dock being available... Otherwise I'm going to have to contact Saverne for a engineering team to do this under hanger-machines and more manpower. Definetly have to do a spot of 'cargo liberation' to keep the dockmaster happy and supplies up to date... Worthwhile looking at what we can shake down on the lanes.

"I'm proud of you CV, you fly the flag well, but now under a steel shell to call your home."
