Nice recap of the ship details presented earlier by Elendos.
The details about the ship construction and modularity is kind of a relief as if it was considered one big chunk, it would be hard to say what you are focusing on during repair. With modules it might be possible to upgrade those modules and make the ship better than initial design.

My faction power is not like some of the card holders that have been around since the beginning. I sit about 10-14% of those with the biggest faction scores. Which is about right, as noobs should not be able to come in and have large influence on factions.

The cards in your total collection having influence into individual games is a cool way to add value to the collection as a whole. This is for sure something I have not seen in any other game. Another original !!
