The scene when the first cameras began to stream footage back to the Alliance government was flawless, just as Felicity had planned. Hundreds of dry docks were built, and the first ships were beginning to be assembled, just the bare frames to show the Alliance viewers that work was already underway.
That was all that they really needed, and the ships would be completed in the next two days so that a new batch could be started. Max had considered ordering more dry docks to be made, but the logistics of operating and quality controlling that many build projects at once was simply impossible. Even as they were, they were stretching their numbers of qualified professionals very thin, and there were likely to be a number of minor flaws in all the ships that an overworked staffer simply overlooked.
