Dispatch Containers passive states it gives a +1 bonus to offense and defense, when in reality it gives a +1/+2 bonus to offense/defense

Level 3 Newton upgrade has some missing words.

A new set of main computer cores allow
         a (what?) to connect to the LCARS of a target
         ship to optimize (what?) and its shield harmony

Or is the first part "...allows a connection too"?

I think the second one has an extra word and should be 'to optimize its shield harmony'.

Shouldn't that be 'coming'?

The new supplies for destroyed ships section of both warp-in tooltips say fonds instead of funds.

If a Warp-In vessel is being destroyed,
        you will have to support the Starfleet
        construction fonds with a small amount
        of supplies

Also, shouldn't it say 'is destroyed', rather than 'is being destroyed'? You don't get charged until after it dies.

Is the veteran passive of the Excelsior-II named after the ship todesign it? Because it is called the Miron Refit, while the shp is called USS Miran.

Increases damage dealt by an amount equal to 0.8 percent of the target's total hit points.

Is this a mistake? 0.80 is 80%, but 0.8% is the same as 0.008! 0.8 percent is barely anything at all! If the target has 60 hit points, that would be 60*0.008= a bonus of 0.48 points! Although maybe I don't know how the hitpoint system works, perhaps ships have hundreds or thousands of these points.

nope, that's correct. Consider an outpost, for example, with over 6000 hitpoints

nope, that's correct. Consider an outpost, for example, with over 6000 hitpoints

And in that case the extra damage will be 48 extra damage per shot

I vote we change both the typo and the real name (whichever is which) to Myron




bonus points to those that get the refrence.

Vote?! This is not a democracy! 

I don't like ys in vowel positions, so I suggest keeping it Miran.

Fed-klin mixed tech repair ship, it's special says it can be used when sheilds are active. It should say engines as tractors have no issue with shields.

Cluster Torpedo Launcher description reads:

This special torpedoes carry more then one warhead...

should read:

These special torpedoes carry more than one warhead...
