The Atlas has restored their weapons! Your teams are making good progress!
[?] The messages of panic seem to have subsided some, but it is clear that the defensive response is still not completely organized.
[?] The Freighter has opened fire on the Saucy Sally! [9] Luckily the ship is ready for the feeble attack and avoids it.
