The Fleet Book 2 alien races, and three more rulebooks to read.

Alien races

Kra'Vak, Sa'Vasku and Phalon are playable alongside the human fleets. Each is a tech module
inside the Fleet Book ruleset with its own systems, record-sheet icons, rules check and quick
reference, and each brings its book classes into the catalog.

  • The ship catalog grows from 96 designs to 141. 139 of them recompute to the exact points
    value printed in the book; the two that don't are listed in data/errata.json with the reason.
  • Sa'Vasku constructs have no crew and no thrust rating: the sheet prints their power-per-turn
    thrust table and an allocation box instead.
  • Phalon shells are layered armour, where a box in the fourth layer costs 8 points rather than 2.
    Pulser settings (long / medium / close) are chosen per ship before a battle, and the print
    dialog can leave the icons blank so you can write them on the sheet the way the book does.

Rulebooks

Three more books ship with the app, searchable and fully bookmarked like the core four:
Cross Dimensions and Project Continuum with its errata. Both are free non-commercial
publications distributed with Ground Zero Games' agreement. They are included to be read; the
app does not implement their rules.

Also

  • Windows builds are now signed as "Deltrex". The certificate is self-signed rather than bought,
    so SmartScreen still warns the first time: click "More info", then "Run anyway".
  • The download page gained read-only previews of a design and a fleet, rendered from the app
    itself.

Design files are schema_version 2. Older files are migrated when opened.
