Well, the engine tests were more or less smooth besides that we were only able to use about half the throttle at first. The team working on that detected some major issues, as a power conduit shorted out while doing some repair work a few months ago. We fixed that fairly quickly but I lost one of my guys while they were at it. The poor guy didn't listen when I told him to always measure twice... Luckily for me, no one who is still here has family left. Anyway, no need for unnecessary distraction it's tragic and all but we have more important tasks at hand.

While we did manage to fix the conduit and restore full power to the engines it is still not completely perfect. We somehow lost connection with one of the heavy weapon stations. While we still can access everything, the fire and control system doesn't react whatsoever. Almost as if it is missing. I will deploy a team to inspect that closer, a bit later. Since I'm gonna need some more hands with the next task Cortana gave to us.

I will keep these logs up to date once the team has inspected everything around that heavy weapon. Oh yes and I still have to deploy a team to repair hangar gate 2 since that got damaged when we took over this vessel. We will see if that's even needed as we don't have the capacity anyway to deploy a whole squadron. It would most likely be easier if we just repair it in the dry docks when we meet our brethren.
