Honestly, we can spend that time with the other tasks we'll need to accomplish to get well prepared.<br/><br/>Finishing Sarah's campaign to pose as an Ultramar relative and increase the moral and efficiency of the Alexander...<br/><br/>Putting together a crew for the Everest.  Certainly it already would have a basic crew... but it's also almost certainly undermanned.  As for that, I have a plan.  We're looking for a place to put the hordes of extra people in the hold of the Kobras Aquairre, right?  Well, they've grown up in space, onboard a fighting spaceship... and who better to form a loyal base of crewmen for our new Lunar Class Cruiser, the Everest?  Also, if we made a small expansion to the Everest's crew quarters, say, make it a Clan Crew Quarters instead of standard Voidsmen quarters, which would take one extra space... but be well worth it for moral... and the fact that it would make the Everest into, essentially, a colony world in space...  it would give us a renewable source of crewmen and excellent loyalty on our Cruiser?  How could we go wrong with that?<br/><br/>Training... Darius needs to train as a starship pilot... or at least, he wants to, so he can aid Sarah.  We've upgraded to three ships now, you know!<br/><br/>Between this, and recruiting more colonists for Ares, we've got plenty to do for two months... and that time will fly by....<br/><br/>Edit:  Oh, and I put in actual statistics for the essential components on the Everest on the Rules and Mechanics Page now... subject to approval by TGT, of course.
