Starfox's Blades in the Dark hack

Base

The standard base is a Spin Pod, a independent living unit meant to connect to a ship or spin habitat to gain spin gravity and other services. A starting base generally needs to rely on its host for life support, energy, and security, as you invest in the base you become more and more independent.

☐,☐ Life support

Basic life support recycles air and remains stable for a few days. ☐ indicates you sustain air and water for a prolonged time. ☐☐ extends this to full life support. The food may not great, but it is there.

☐,☐ Power

Basic power is batteries for a day of isolation, sufficient for moving from dock to dock. ☐ Serious battery reserve that can supply you for weeks. ☐☐ A D-D fusion reactor provides full power for years at a time.

☐,☐ Maneuver

The starting base has arcjet thrusters for docking maneuvers. ☐ Ion engines for station-keeping and slow travel. ☐☐ Adding fusion rockets, essentially turning the base into a spaceship, but without artificial gravity. Significant travel requires external reaction mass and shielding; ways top do this are included.

☐,☐ Camouflaged

The starting base has a nondescript front and registration that outlines its abilities. ☐ Adds a front camouflaging as a different kind of installation, including schooled registration entries. A deep database search will uncover the deception. ☐☐ A false front and registry entries from a polity, leaving no paper trail corruption to be detected. Requires the help of a friendly or corrupt polity.
