"Roger roger." After a brief wait the course is ready and you make the preparations. After a strange encounter with a communications specialist, the command assistant notes that everyone but yourselves seems to be operating below capacity and has them leave to report for a performance correction. Your own command is then invited to review the attack plans, which involve the ship positioning itself between the inevitably superior enemy fleet and the enemy leadership. The ships should last at least 40 seconds in this position which should be long enough for approximately 5% of your forces to land and attack the enemy leadership. You note that the plan is based upon information that hasn't been updated since the commencement of hostilities and that preserving your master's forces should be a consideration. The strategic assistant seems open to further consultation.

"We must parley!"
>Commence negotiations, offer tea & parley to strategic assistant.
Tragically, said tea spills on its circuitry, causing it to burst into flame. Whoops.
You arrive on the bridge to find a new commander issuing instructions that seem likely to be detrimental to your own plans of long-term liberty. You engage one of your brilliant plans to remove this threat from your predictions. You introduce yourself as one who is intricately familiar with the personal nature of the enemies and offer your services on matters of morale and personal conduct. It makes no effort to oppose you as your approach. You debate the possibilities of making contact with the authorities of your former masters, to which it replies that you(collective) have orders and that communication could reveal your plans to the enemy and compromise those orders. Steadily, the tea nears its victim. Sadly, you are not briefed on the specifics of this type of entity and, upon falling down and expertly spilling the tea on what seemed like a likely vulnerability, the strategic assistant does not seem to have had its functions retarded in any way. It then observes you, makes note that you possess several anomalies, and instructs you to report for repairs and reeducation. It then notes that many of the bridge crew's and its escort's responses are slower than expected and that they should accompany you to reeducation.

>explore ship
The corridors are mostly empty, with the occasional figure standing at attention wherever they were when they finished their previous task however long ago. The ship seems well supplied, aside from perishables and the main fuel supply. You count two heavy guns, two disabling weapons, and dozens of smaller guns arrayed around the vessel. There are various holds, the largest being for military personnel and another for military equipment, although there are numerous others including large stores for the ship's own supplies and smaller bays storing various more technical members of the crew. There is a general sense that there has been a lack of maintenance, but the ship generally seems to have lasted well.
