Release - Discovery 4.92: Storm's Wake

[Markam]

I had a first chance to fly about yesterday, picked up a few changes in Bretonia worthy of note.

• Leicester Shipping Platform (or something like that), a new Bowex base in Nottingham next to Sprague (pls change this planets name..). Bowex lost most of their bases during the war so it is nice to see they get one back, especially in a new frontier. Base sells Hull Components which is great for POBs in the area, and seems to import Gallic goods. It however does not sell any non-pob good, not even say, goods sold on the planet.
  
• Durham station was built in Leeds next to the NL gate, originally this was a BPA station before the war, now it is a Bowex station. Originally Bowex was based out of Glasgow next to the Tau-31 gate, so this seems to be a representation of the shifting of Bretonian borders south.
  
• Already mentioned I think, but Battleship Harlow moved from Cortez to Newcastle, and Ark Royal from Newcastle to Poole. This move was requested by the BAF previously via a faction request. Ark Royal to replace the ancient Stirling and Harlow, an under-strength fleet, to bulk up at Scarborough.
  
• Planet Harris infocard was changed to reflect Crayter "annexing" the planet. Players agreed inRP that we would avoid conflict over the planet, and say Bretonia agreed to lease the planet to Crayter, now the infocard makes it look like Crayter is upsetting Bretonia by stealing the planet while Leeds burned. Makes Crayter look like a bunch of horrible people.
  
• Birmingham in Manchester was rebuilt, and instead of being returned to BMM was given to Planetform. The bases original purpose was making terraforming goods to be shipped to Liberty, so Planetform is a sensible owner. Player RP exists to try terraforming a planet in Manchester, so it could be a good RP start point. The lanes nearby were also repaired.
  
• Mentioned elsewhere but Poole now has a gate construction site to connect to Exeter.
  

That is all I noticed so far. I imagine a lot more was changed especially in Gallia, but for Bretonia it seems that we are getting tidied up a bit. I would like the Newcastle gate connection fixed, New London lanes fixed, and Sprague renamed, but in general we are looking less of a mess with the update.
