If I recall the standard armament for our specific craft is 8 rockets, 2 cannons and 2 machine guns. That came about from:

Kei continues, "Single prop, looks like a modified squid engine was used. Rocket racks under the wings, and two guns in either wing."

"For a wired design, those Anvalans sure know how to make a plane," adds Antonio.

It was never specified as to what kind of guns and I've made it so our rockets have magnetic warheads for nominal tracking ability, not great in a dogfight but useful against larger craft.

Also I have a post in the pipeline, should be done in a little bit.

Since it can hold rockets, using modified Artemis rockets, they can be switched out with bombs.

I want Mosquitoes.

Corsairs are amazing, but Mosquitoes.

So I thought I would once again compile a list of characters that are technically controllable by anyone (Though I guess certain characters such as Kei and the Scout Pilots and a few others kind of get controlled by a limited set of people because… no one else has decided to do so?) and list them here.

Named Major Crew:
Ulric Culvin – Scientist, Escort Captain
Alexi Kasparov – Mercenary, Escort Captain
Reynard Larson – Merchant Mercenary, Escort Captain
Antonio Wylan – Scout Pilot
Farris Moore – Scout Pilot
Kei Naga – Scout Pilot

Named Crew:
Mr. Charles Banning – Comm Officer (3rd Watch)
Mr. Gregory Allen – Comm Officer (2nd Watch)
Ms. Janet Belle – Comm Officer (1st Watch)
Mr. Martin Yates – Navigator (2nd Watch)
James Crowe – Head Engineer
Hank Friedan – Engineer (2nd Watch)
Marie Wilson – Hanger Tech (2nd Watch)
Theodore Cutler – Marine Gunner (2nd Watch)
Otto Smith – Engineer (Probably a Huge Asshole, Birdman Infiltrator - Undiscovered, 2nd Watch)
Marcus Graham – Engineer (1st Watch)

Mentioned Unnamed Minor Crew:
4 Man Maintenance Crew (The Flak of Doom, 3rd Watch)
-Team Leader (Male)
-Crew Member (Male)
-Crew Member (Female)
-Crew Member (Male)
Helmsman (Male, 3rd Watch)
Helmsman (Male, 1st Watch)
Navigator (Female, 1st Watch)

As a reminder this the watch system I've based our ship off of. It's only really an outline, all crew members are on duty during the day, the watches only designate the absolute minimum number of personnel who should be on duty at any given time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watch_system#Swedish_system

Gaige is offering to assist around engineering. I doubt he's even aware there's a salvage op going on (In character of course, I'm certain Shaded is capable of knowing current events).

That was never recorded anywhere but I've fixed it in the master document and will be uploaded once we have introduced more crew members.

It was in the initial introduction. Also when the wreck was spotted I named the navigator Martin

Was it? I must've missed that cause I did a search in the thread and couldn't find anything. Also I quite like Martin Yates for some reason, I don't know why.

Yeah the search only did a few post back. But you can find it when I place where they were originally from
