Our sales will repair for the next set of assets we took:

DropShips:

We took these ships:


2 Overlords
2 Unions
3 Leopards
1 Seeker
1 Intruder
1 Mule

The others were destroyed too much to do anything.

We sell the Leopards to make some cash for 425 million CBills.

We use the sales to fix the damaged DropShips that didn’t surrender. They’ll be ready January 31, 3067

A Seeker, the obsolete version, carries 48 vees and 4 mechs or 64 vehicles. It also carries 4 platoons of infantry. Because it just carries tanks and infantry usually, it’s not really a major upgrade for our touman. Now it is designed as a fast reconnaissance craft, and its’ pacey, 5/8 movement, I’ll grant it that. It has slightly less armor than a Leopard or LCV and a lot less than a Union. It also features a handful of weapons. But again, it doesn’t really meet many of our needs.

Now the Intruder? It’s a raiding, recon, assault-y sort of DropShip. It’s got solid armor, strong weapons, and can carry a flight of fighter (s) and 4 squads of infantry. We like it. We have an upgraded one in our T&OE already, and this is weaker, but still has some value to us.

But the Seeker? We’re not sure that what we need is yet another tank carrier. Perhaps we could swap it in for a Gazelle? Although, to be fair, we have been adding more tanks to our roster, so let’s not get too hasty. We’ll keep it.
