THE CAPTAIN’S PATH

Manual

A field manual for the frontier. Start with your first hour — eight steps from the debris field to a colony — then go deeper: the map, modules, the fleet, loot. No marketing: only the laws of the world and the numbers you can lean on.

HOW TO READ THIS MANUAL

Three rules of the road

The manual runs from the first hour to the full picture of the world. Read it in order, or open the page you need.

  1. 01

    The path first, the numbers second

    The Start pages lead you by the hand: short steps, checks and links onward. Exact figures live in Colony, Fleet and Reference — go there when you need to count.

  2. 02

    The world remembers every action

    Every capture, every unpaid upkeep bill and every jump into a foreign system leaves a mark. The manual describes the laws of the world, not a screen: when a rule changes, the page changes with it.

  3. 03

    One page, one job

    Every page answers a specific question and links to its neighbour. You never have to read everything to understand one thing.

YOUR FIRST FLIGHT

Manual read. The Gate is open.

Guest entry works immediately — keep the first page handy as you play.
