Update on AIE Starbase! We are doing great, just finishing up on the research lab, making some big steps on the spire, and the K-13 station is closing in on being upgraded to the next tier. The big projects for the last tier will be available later.

We are done with carrots, thanks to Disturbed Angel. Empty kegs, elonian wine, ectos, glassware and silverwastes shovels are the new materials needed for the guild hall.
And with that, let’s talk about what we have been doing since our last show!
