The arithmetic in this game frequently uses such accurate values as 'lots' and 'many'. Don't get your hopes up, hoss.

Also, tangentially related topic (It's not a doublepost given the number of hours since my last comment, and that I'm not asking a real question).

What exactly are the displacement values for the smaller ships? Quite possibly up to and including the Light Merchant. This is so, y'know, I can spec things like transporting non-fighter craft inside larger ships.

Just a clarification, but the Perovskaya is only escorting ilf in this solar system - if ilf jumps out they're coming back to escort me.

Fine, the crew can take some leave. It's not like stressing and going on missions intensively in a new galaxy where we still get shot at by pirates seems like a good idea.

You can, though it will take some time to refit all that equipment into your new ship.

Can I have the light merchant exchanged for a medium merchant at cost, and sort out the rest later? A bit busy now, sorry.

Tarinaky: Purchases approved and under way. Expect them to arrive soonish. Claiming salvage on objects requires that you can move them into controlled space (Either a colony, Station Zero or space that you've claimed for yourself). What you can do is claim it as sovereign territory. That however requires a lot of paperwork.
