I know we all love the anguis, but why pay to repair a damaged hull when we still have a brand new one? The only advantage the anguis has is that its already modified for some trim webs, but your plan only includes trim crystals so thats wasted.

Actually that's a good point if we equip the other hull we can equip it with armour right away. For some reason I managed to forget we actually had a spare hull. Edited the plan.

Using basic trim crystals on anything but civilian craft is a waste; the viper gets much more performance out of the trim webs. Sure, it's expensive on the wood but better to spend that wood than to have to worry about another damaged viper. And we aren't getting either hull off the docks this turn at any rate.

Anyway, Draig are we able to recycle old, obsolete equipment to regain some resources?

Production Plan Ceira
Repair & Refit Anguis Hull:
Repairs (5 Wood, 2 Ore)
6 Reams of Webbing (12 Silk)

12 Trim Webs (6 Crystal, 6 Ore & 18 Wood)
Medium Core Crystal (18 Crystal)
Small Lift Crystal (3 Crystal, 2 Ore)
7 Light Aether Cannons (7 Crystal, 7 Ore)

TOTAL SPENT: 34 Crystal, 17 Ore, 23 Wood, 24 Silk

Not at the moment.

Why don't we push our 3 skiffs in enemy territory to blockade their home spire? Blockade ensures we catch any transports moving, we stay out of range of the dock guns. Even though there is a smaller chance to intercept resource shipments, there are 3 times more moving in, so we would likely hit their resources a bit too.

Well, I'll give it a bit for you guys to finalize your production plan. However, since it doesn't appear to interfere with the events of the turn, I'll begin working on the turn shortly.

It'll should be ready next turn and unless I misunderstand the rules we'll be able to do minor refits like adding the armour next turn without taking up an action.

Refits, however minor, end that ship's action.

Double posting: There is a problem with your movement plan.

The skiffs in Wreth territory don't have the range to make it back to Blackstone. They, like all current vessels, can only make two jumps on the map in a single round. You wanna post a quick revision on that?

To clarify, the problem is the three skiffs currently on the rightmost Wrethan spire, so they still can't reach the Three Captains (or the three captions).

It's not a full start, just re directing our sky skiffs because the original start had them doing something impossible.

Since Kashyyk's plan is impossible I'm just editing slightly so it is.
Quote from: Operation Salted Earth Mk2
All marines use Fighting Retreat
Serpintus, Pythonidae and both skyskiffs at Kasgyre move to Three Captains. All are to use Airborne Ambush Manoeuvres
Three skiffs in Wrethi territory move to Glowcove. Two are to use Scouting. The rest use AAM.

Well... Yea. I want to attack the enemy home spire but seeing as that's much closer to the original plan that actually won, I suppose it's only fair.
