This is assuming we survive this battle... and manage to clear out the nebula.  If the enemy cruiser has void shields despite using a cloaking device, then it'll be able to shoot back much easier... and depending on it's range and firepower, it could do some serious damage.<br/><br/>Of course... this is assuming that we did ANY damage to it.  I think we did... in fact I think we got it's sensors and engines... not counting whatever damage the Kobras Aquiarre manages, but we cannot be sure until TGT confirms it.<br/><br/>But yeah, assuming we win the battle... and whatever other battles we might have to deal with to clear the nebula... we'll be well on our way toward fully fortifying Ares, which will be nice.<br/><br/>I've got further plans for the Everest as well.  After all, we do have these shiny new salvage systems to try out... and there is going to be quite a bit to salvage in the near future, I'm guessing.  (assuming we live.)<br/><br/>As for taking the Wayfarer station intact... well, it all depends on what sort of forces are left aboard it.<br/><br/>We have some pretty big crews, but we don't really have a good ground assault force... not one trained for ship to ship or ground combat, anyway.  Can we board and take the place with what we have?  We certainly have the command skill to pull it off... but do we have the capability?
