Home floated, surrounded by thousands of ships, the two Sanctuary class ships loomed on the edge of visual range from the Moon, overseeing mining operations and overhaul.
The signal had gone out that all ships were to return to Home for check up, overhaul, and refitting. The larger ships were having weapons systems traded out and internal workings refitted for a more ballanced weapons array. The addition of fourty new capital class ships was also announced. The new Cutter class dreadnoughts had been designed to combat much larger ships. Bearing two twin superheavy particle beam mounts, as well as eight quad barreled 812mm gravitic drivers, set in retractable mounts along its hull. it sported a tactical shield, aswell as its own compliment of shield drones, a hangar with enough space for 28 interceptors and eight corvettes, as well as four boarding craft. The vessels were 1200 meters long, by 300 meters at the tail, it had an almost arrowhead shape, there sleek hulls were black against the darkness of space.
They made their way one by one out of the massive opening on Home, leaving the drydocks as the first fleet began its refit, Second fleet was on its way, limping back from a fiasco that had cost the fleets admiral his career.
