The last I looked, Admiralty ships’ Maintenance periods weren’t starting until you claimed the mission rewards (compare woth doffing, where if a doff goes to sickbay, it can happen “off camera”). Are they planning on fixing that or is it wai?
Beyond that, nice patch.

Good question, and certainly one I think we’ll see answered before Season XI. Lowering the maintenance periods was the first major issue – other than the reclaiming of ships to get the cards.

You’re absolutely right. The maintenance timers were a vital step. Now I’m gonna grade them on the follow through. 🙂

That is awsome becouse you have 8 assigments times 3 ship is 24 ships needet for optimal if you sent doffs once a day. First time i saw admilarity it wos over 60 ships needet for optimal sending. Now we just need for admilarity to give us cards of ships we own from c-stor.

Sadly that’s not going to happen. The game can’t / doesn’t know what ships you got before this. You’ll have to pry one slot open from your ship roster, then rotate through claiming and dismissing every ship. It’s not optimal, I know, but it’s all we’ve got.
