As captain, I expect that Jason (not 100% on the name...) might have some say in how the Everest is refitted while it is being repaired, and so long as I keep the list to regular components from the essential list, I expect it'll be alright.  Although getting TGT to confirm a final list of how the Everest is equipped when the group gets a hold of her would be nice.<br/><br/>But yes, having at least range 9 weapons on the Everest would greatly help with it's main tactical flaw... aka, a faster ship with a longer range weapon could pick her apart at will... although we DO have the Kobias and the Alexander to deal with that sort of thing, it would be nice not to have to rely on them.
