If Fang tries to conquer a world the Baron is on, he decreases the conquest roll by one. Jock is a wily thief. All ships and planets in the game have primitive technology. Once spotted, ships remain detected until they pass five or more hexes away from the spotting ships. Ships may also become undetected by landing on a world or passing through an asteroid hex.
Planets have no detection capability at all.
Allied neutrals, liberated Bongo province worlds and conquered worlds may produce transports, packets, corvettes, and frigates. If Fang is present on a world he controls, he may use his scientific knowledge to produce Dreadnaughts at a cost of fifteen points. Points may be transferred freely between friendly worlds. Earth has especially primitive technology. It has no production capability, and cannot refuel ships unless they end their turn on its surface.
