Tripoli

[jammi]

I was just browsing through all the infocards in Gamma yesterday when I noticed this:

I'll draw your attention to the underlined red part. Tripoli apparently has a dry-dock (which I'm assuming is one of those cage style things that you'll see on every other shipyard, including Skiros Shipyard on the other side of the system) capable of servicing battleship class vessels.

I don't see it. Here's a picture of the station itself:

Now to me, Tripoli looks just about capable of manufacturing fighters in it's current state, let alone a Legate, which is quite frankly huge! The only other nearby shipyard (that isn't hidden away in a faction owned/guard system) is Skiros, which is alot bigger than Tripoli and does only produce fighters rather than the Capitals it's obviously sized for.

Am I missing something highly obvious, or is something a little bit wrong here?

That's funny, I could have sworn I saw dry docks on them a while ago...maybe I'm hallucinating.

Tripoli has a proud tradition of being the only capship docks without those drydock things you mentioned.

"The thirteen saloons that had lined the one street of Seney had not left a trace. The foundations of the Mansion House hotel stuck up above the ground. The stone was chipped and split by the fire. It was all that was left of the town of Seney. Even the surface had been burned off the ground.
Nick looked at the burned-over stretch of hillside, where he had expected to find the scattered houses of the town and then walked down the railroad track to the bridge over the river. The river was there."

Hehe nice... perhaps we should move cap ships to Skiros... and edit the infocard.

Oh hey, that's the infocard I wrote! Though I dont remember butchering the end of it like that...

Anyways, I wrote that with the understanding that capital ships were constructed at Tripoli. I see two solutions here.

1: swap shiplists for Skiros and Tripoli. This makes the most sense.

2: add cage-style drydocks to Tripoli, and remove them from Skiros. This makes less sense.

I'd advocate #1, and slightly reqriting the infocard to something like "Though other Corsair shipyards produce awe-inspiring heavy capital ships and draw increasing attention, the heart and soul of the Corsair shipbuilding industry still remains at Tripoli, crafting the iconic Corsair fighters that have served faithfully for so long."
