So eventually we'll need to have sector's which aren't Earth sector?
What does a sector entail? - The proper Government buildings (Sector Command). Radius proportional to the square root of the number of buildings.

Yes, but there's no sense in starting the new sector in a system adjacent to the Sol sector. The new one will have a radius too, so it should be set back a bit.So given there's a natural limit to the radius of our sector, won't we need a second one in a colony eventually?
What would the new sector entail? It'd be semi infldependent and need it's own stashes, supplied, etc.?Yes, but there's no sense in starting the new sector in a system adjacent to the Sol sector. The new one will have a radius too, so it should be set back a bit.
What was it we use uridium for?Our Uridium supply is slowly increasing month-on-month, so we have reversed the downward trend.
Why do we need two AWACS per squadron?Four more Eyeball class AWACS FACs come off the production line, and another four laid down.
This allows us to form a larger number of Sabre squadrons, since I like to put two AWACS in each.
What does construction rate 20 BP mean?April 10th 1999

That's the third class of second-gen refits started... first Carriers and Gauss PD, now AWACS.
Are all Sabre Is upgraded?May 17th, 1999.
Four more Sabre IIIs are launched, and that's the last of the Legacy versions that were in the pipe-line. Now only Sabre IVs are under construction.
With those slipways cleared, four more Sabre IIs enter refit to be upgraded to the latest Sabre IV model.
I take it that all upgraded crafts get an -U at the end of their number?
What was it we use uridium for? - Sensors and (most important!) making spare parts.
Why do we need two AWACS per squadron? - One AWACS is a point failure risk. What if it gets knocked out, or breaks down?
What does construction rate 20 BP mean? - Constructing stuff twice as fast as at game start.
Are all Sabre Is upgraded? - Only one is upgraded so far. Eight more in the works.
I take it that all upgraded crafts get an -U at the end of their number? - If I remember to, yes.
Let's hope not, as won't it eventually find us if so?Has some fool set off The Swarm?
The Swarm expands and explores, yes. And yeah, I doubt that we're ready for something like that.Let's hope not, as won't it eventually find us if so?
And I doubt we're prepared for that.
Ah, so if the swarm actually is on the loose then we're boned?The Swarm expands and explores, yes. And yeah, I doubt that we're ready for something like that.
Not necessarily. It might take them so many years to get here that we'll be more than a match for them by then.Ah, so if the swarm actually is on the loose then we're boned?
