    It's the refit that was mentioned in the same scene that introduced Julia to the rest of the board. They're using it to fund their build up to full operational capacity on the Ring Factories as well as full reactivation of the ERPPC line until Olivetti gets around to ordering the stuff for their...

    The Amaris family really doesn’t have that excuse. They got much better treatment than the other Periphery powers. To the level that the Star League restored them to power after a revolt that damn near overthrew them. No, the Amarises had a snake pit as a court and seemed to view that as a...

    This. I do my best to make sure that if I’m using Endo or FF on a Mech, that some Endo or FF end up in in each section of that Mech. Keeps me from memeing too much if nothing else. That’s part of what I mean by going for realism. Other stuff is thinking about why certain decisions would have...
