In a sign the Starbotians won't stand down and dismantle the Argon base Commander K-2 has ordered the Starbot armed forces to full readiness. All ships in the fleet have been recalled to the home system and will be bought to full alert status.
The Starbotian fleet is small but pretty powerful, at it's heart four Type 35 destroyers (two Panthers and two Indys). The Starbotians are estimated to have around sixty TPMs left in stock though are TPM-1s. They also have three Freedom 41B frigates and a number of other home grown warships.
This potent fleet will make any NS military action much harder especially if Caratore's favoured option, to mission kill the Starbot fleet is the one employed.
