Welcome to the Pelea patch. This was a big one.

Ships are now in game assets instead of being attached to your account.

Ships are permanently destroyed when destroyed in space.

Production now requires blueprints to run. Most blueprints are seeded in the market.

Capital and Supercapital blueprints are only obtainable as drops.

A new scannable site was added, AntiFed Outpost with multiple waves of increasingly strong enemies. Can be run by a battleship by crews willing to warp out before death.

The first dungeon AntiFed Stronghold was added to the game with multiple rooms. This is an endgame dungeon best run by multiple crews ready to warp out in am emergency. The warpable entrance is in Asterhold Spindle.

Combat music was added.

Endowed AntiFed Officer begins to play victory music when his health gets low enough.
