FTU Capital Patrol Mastered
FTU Capital Patrol exists because the frontier rewards specialized violence. United Earth Federation keeps this pattern in service where doctrine, profit, or old automation makes it useful. Veteran captains counter it by reading the first exchange: its visible resist table offers no obvious weakness, so tempo control matters more than damage fashion. Destroyed examples show field repairs, recycled parts, and mission scars that rarely reach official reports. Mastery turns the contact from a threat into a map note: where these hulls gather, a faction priority, derelict order, or hidden route is usually nearby.
