@Aragonn, how many people do your frigates typically hold? I'm writing about one of the boarding pods right now, and I don't want to accidentally throw way too many (or way too few people) at you.

Frigates will hold about 1500 Drekrekkr each. Most will be covering key areas of the ship, not many in the hangars.

Alright, cool. Since most aren't in the hangars, would about ~250 pirates per ship be enough to put me at a big numerical disadvantage without being immediately crushed? I'm not trying to keep myself from losing or anything, it'll just be more fun if there's some sort of fight instead of absolute decimation.

Given the nature if spaceship layouts, I do believe you'd be able to do a decent amount of damage with just that many pirates.

Oh, true, I hadn't considered that.

Something IRL came up (nothing bad) and I'll be away from home for the next couple of hours, but I'll wrap up my post and put it up when I get back.

Hmmmm... that just makes me think that it is something bad

So ships can still have hyperwave but smaller so only a few sectors' distance?

Yes, definitely; I think most capital ships would at least have some hyperwave capability. Larger ships can also have more powerful hyperwave transceivers constructed in them that would allow them to communicate over even larger distances. Within your own territories though, if you've built good communications infrastructure, it shouldn't be much of a problem.

K then

I just watched a video that might interest you guys, about automated warfare in the future. It's not particularly relevant, and many of the points it makes are rather obvious, but it's still interesting.

Has a diplomatic fleet already been to New Witchmond before the story considering we are neighbors and we already know each other.

Can someone answer this? (Preferable Acaria)

Yes. I think I established it in the latest IC post too.

Oh, it didn't mention New Witchmond so I didn't know.

The only contacts they currently had was the Remnant, the Romulan Star Empire, and New Witchmond.

Ah, ok, didn't notice that

@Bodobol The wrath of the Aesir will fall upon your pirates rather than your entire nation.

Be glad you're dealing with the Æsir, worm. Marinia would crush your government for this insult.

(Also, I don't really think you're a worm. That was a bit of IC sentiment. )
