Horizon got a special bonus with the OSA due to certain guarantees made during the Coreward Border War. Otherwise the value would be much lower.
E: also, Felis relations takes into account their progress made against the ISC as well.

The Council better have some good suggestions for the Coreward situation next snakepit.
At deployment the OSA tag was:
At the shipyard result post:
Are the +16 added to the 253 to make the final reputation 269?
and the reps at the shipyard post is 10 lower then at the TF log is this correct?

These are kind of things we should hear about when our task forces, diplomats and intel operate in the area.
I actually forgot to mention it this update but will try to expound on it in the next one.
Yeah, I'm really leaning towards the P10-Refit Rennie proposals. I don't really care anymore that we'd have to take Rennies off the line to Refit them, we can just build more to replace them.

I do like this. Iz good!
I've been contemplating that the Licori might try to covertly obtain, or re-invent, the cloaking device for about the past ten years of game time...
As a technophilic species, I suspect they want that very much, to the point where two of the last three Licori omakes I wrote actually make reference to it.
The Licori ban may be temporary; I'm sure the commander on the spot will do their best.
I'm... kind of inclined to agree, not necessarily specifically with this, but that a very large amount of sunk cost went into dealing with those [Harmony Influence] tags and it's not at all clear whether any of that effort still exists. It may not actually be the case that the contributions and efforts of our ships in the past got retconned out of existence , but it looks like that, which really hurts.
Yeh.
Oh? Would you mind going into detail on how that worked? I know you normally like to keep mechanics like this a bit opaque, but right now people are a bit unhappy about the idea that our ships' previous effort to buy down those [Harmony Influence] tags was a complete waste of time, so explaining in detail just what happened to all that work would probably help.
Er, could you expand on what you mean by this? Does the Harmony get a bonus to its relations (and effectively its ability to stop them joining us) because of its interactions with the ISC? What's the ISC's relations with the Felis; do they have anything to show for their sizeable commitment of ships whose Presence stat is, if not stunning, at least not low?
Dat first image! The Comet is really channeling the Miranda there.
Really like the front and side profiles of the Comet. It's aggressive but also recognizably Starfleet.

I really like this design, pretty much exactly how I'd imagined the ship.
The image appears to have been Anti-Hotlinked...

I'm not sure what you mean by that?
We have about 30 rennies so we can do both the P10 and the C7 refits but i expect we are going to do mostly P10 refits next year.
Ok, I did some testing. It works fine on my IPad but my phone gets a no-hotlinking image.
That was what I intended to mean. We Refit 6-10 to P-Rennies and keep the rest normal for the upcoming Vanguard Refit.

I am still not sold on deflector above the saucer but this design is quite nice. It gives a vibe of "I am a fast ship built to go in harm's way."Dat first image! The Comet is really channeling the Miranda there.

While that might be the deflector (I'm not convinced, it looks a bit small), that box-on-top is the 'Miranda Rollbar' External Science Sensor Module, without which the Comet is navigationally blind. So the Comet inherits more than just the front profile from the Miranda.
I don't blame you for not knowing, Shipyard Ops was over a month ago.

Can we get some clarifications about stuff?
1. If we affiliate, for example the Licori, and then the HoH do so as well does the income we get from them drop? Same question for alliances.
2. Are we able to have mutual allies with the ISC ?
3. If we and the HoH are allies with, for example the OSA, and then we get them to become members what happens with their alliance with the HoH? Does it disappear? Gets changed into some form of NAP? Do they keep affiliation at least? Same in reverse.
4. Are we able to reduce the HoH relations score? Not just increase ours, but actively reduce theirs. For example uncover some of their underhanded tactics/past misdeeds. Seems like it should be a result of a very good roll from a task force.
The new system makes sense, but still feels like a downer.

Bearing in mind that is forward looking by several years, so the accuracy is ... meh.
2325Q2 - USS Comet completes builder trials and is released to the Starfleet general service starting Q3. The plans are distributed across the Federation.
2325Q3-2326Q1 - 24 Comet class hull begin construction (combination of as soon as the plans arrive (2325Q3) and when the Council coughs up the annual budget (2326Q1)
By 2330, the projections are currently for 35 Comet class frigates in Starfleet service.
I'd like to point out that builds are always in-flux.
We have Rennie & Amby Refits and we will be laying down the prototype for our dedicated Diplomatic/Presence Cruiser at some point. And there will always be surprises.
We don't have that many Keplers so P-Keplers would have to be 2.25yr new-builds. We have enough Rennies that we can afford to pull 6-10 off the line for 1yr P-Refits.
