MOX worked. The primary fusion reactors are back online and, in theory, the engines are as well. However, the main hull structure isn't strong enough to move under full impulse power, let alone cruise and survive transfer through a jump stream.
So we're not moving the ship yet. Damn.
Our engineering team coordinated to draw up new plans for the internal structure of the Metropolis. In theory, we can have all the operations stuff at the core of the ship, lengthwise, and build a shell around it that's literally empty except for armour at every "deck" junction. Not only will this help protect the ship from incoming attacks, but it also means fewer casualties in the event the ship is attacked and the shields are penetrated. Since we don't have much of a crew to begin with at this point, we want to save as many people as we can.
This is, according to Florence, an unusual design for a warship interior. But, you know, we're the Vagrant Raiders. We're unusual folks. This is pretty much standard for us.
