I guess Round Two has begun.

Treasury: 10.8 million credits.
Income: 2 million credits from mining and trade.
Expenses: 300,000 credits/ round to Confederacy for mining rights on Turin V.

The BF and LF have arrived and the BF has replaced one sent out with materials for establishing a colony. The elderly habitation spheres abandoned by the first colony should be okay with a few minor repairs. The light Freighter is being gutted at Liberty Starport (hull partitions removed, body work... and...

Expenses: 500,000 credits worth of colony supplies (food, mining equipment, repair supplies, greenhouses, generators, air recyclers, etc.) en route on BF
20,000 credits to retrofit the Light Freighter, but keep my tab open...

I am sending the USS Farragut down to the system to the galactic south of NGC-1776 to round up the "usual suspects..."

Total Income- 2,000,00 minus
Total Expenses- 820,000 credits
1,128,000 credits.

Treasury: 12,128,000 credits... grrrr... not a round number...
