You activate the Advanced Fabrication Unit and set it to produce five SCDs, within moments the required metals are brought up and work begins as the machinery within your shell starts piecing together a frame and the components to fill it. As the Fabrication Unit grinds away at its work load you send the Hivemind drones out to begin gathering resources from the asteroid field beyond, the four drones begin to spiderweb their way across one of the larger asteroids inspecting areas for minerals, digging up small deposits, and marking larger deposits for later use as they carry out the job they were made to. Its not long before the first of the SCDs works its way out of the Fabrication Unit and begins to buzz around your shell as it ensures all of its parts are in working order.
With the first SCD done you look for your databank for templates, designs, and blueprints for structures that the SCD is designed to construct and bring into your network. What you find is quite amazing, stored in your databanks are the plans for simple automated mines, small naval shipyards, defense platforms, research labs, and more all at your disposal. Whoever created you put a lot of foresight into your creation to allow for expansion, and ensure your survival and the accomplishment of whatever your purpose might have been before your databanks were wiped. With more resources now coming in, and a rather great abundance of it given the circumstances you feel you could do well here, at least for now since who knows what might be out there ...
With your primary objective done you turn your attentions to your trajectory and that of the asteroid field around you, you find its stable and in rather high orbit around the unknown moon. When you try to take this information and reference it to the old records but where you expected to find those you find empty files, it seems whoever purged your system really wanted you to have no clue of your position or what you were protecting as you assume that was your purpose all things considered. You turn to your existing SCD pondering what order to give it, the second SCD nearing completion you will soon have two drones to set about constructing whatever you wish.
Designation: Aegis or Aegis Station 22
Condition: Perfect
Shell: Derelict Defense Network Station 22
Station Hull Status
Central Spike Hull: Good Condition, mild damage and a handful of hull breaches but not to much.
First Ring's Hull: Poor Condition, around a third of the ring has been torn to shreds or fallen away at some point, a large amount of maintenance and repairs will need to be done. not to mention manufacturing new segments to replace the lost segments in the ring.
Second Ring's Hull: Poor Condition, while the ring is mostly intact large parts of it are falling apart or already been worn down to the structural layer.
Third Ring's Hull: Average Condition, only one or two sections of the ring are gone and for the most part the damage to this is mostly superficial with a handful of hull breaches.
