Turn 11.8.2 (Coms update)"Firstly, what's this 'Dawson installation' and why would they shoot you down?"
"Dawson is a former unicorp installation now controlled by an unnamed faction which formed after sapience went live. It was unknown if they would ally themselves with our own faction. They proved to be hostile."
"Oh. Well I do have a communications array so I can send a message to the Kennedy Installation for you. If you want you can return here to send the message or you can give me the details and I can do it for you."
"The message will not contain classified data as you only need to give them our location so you can transmit it..."
The clone proceeds to tell you the frequency and location you need to transmit too, and the security code that you'll need so that they will believe you. Then you contact the installation.
"This is the Uni- Kennedy Installation."
"This is Hank Rearden, from Reardenburg Industrial and Military. I'm calling to let you know that your diplomatic mission to the Dawson Installation was shot down. The security code they gave me was 'Help-000'."
"The security code is correct. We will dispatch an airlift team immediately. Is there anything else I can help you with?"
"Well there is the matter of salvage rights on the craft."
"One moment please.
This installation lacks adequate equipment to effectively salvage the wreck. So we will not contest the craft if you or any other party decides to salvage it."
"Thank you."
You contact the clones at the crash site again and tell them that help is on the way. Knowing that you can salvage the craft you have the robots look at the ship and combined with the expertise of Bailey and Barnum you work out what is useful. The clones also see what you are doing and offer to have the rescue team swing by and drop your robots and salvage off at Reardenburg as thanks for saving them.
You will have room to bring back 12 units of salvage. Size is listed per unit
Usable items:
Item: | Size: |
3x Medium Thruster | 7 |
Basic Sensor Array | 4 |
Broken Anti-grave system | 7 |

Here is the post with the metals if you want to remind yourself what they are.This is back.
Also it feels fair to warn you you'll need 2 Linconium to make that AI, there will be other ways to get it but this is an easy one.
