Sorry about the abrupt wake-up call. I'll explain what's going on once we aren't within several hundred miles of an unstable battle cruiser fusion core. You ought to know, though, that we've jumped into a battle we weren't expecting. The Pfhor hit us hard as soon as we resumed space-normal speed, and a new wave of defensives with boarding crew is accelerating into deep orbit at full G. They'll be in engagement range within minutes.

We can't sustain an orbital battle with the Pfhor in a reclaimed Romanov-class ore hauler like the Gingerbread Man, even with access to Noah's outstanding military acumen. If we survive a tactical withdrawal to the planet below, fate truly shines on us.
