Episode Nein: This Shiz Just Got Serious

Stardate 86215.0085 Captain Orlan’s Personal, Private Log Okay, so I know I mentioned we had some terrible money problems in the past. Most of it is because we don’t know how to budget our replicator usage on our ships. People just replicate random shit they want and don’t take into account this takes large amounts of energy. Energy in the form of credits. When I pull up to a trader to refill the warp core tank, it comes out...
