Hi Alex, these patch notes look promising ! I'm a bit late on the hype train, but still very excited.
Do you have any plans to let factions colonize and generally do the same colony related things the player can do ? Similarly, will we be able to colonize a planet on a faction's behalf ?
Also I didn't expect the low tech phase frigate, it's a welcome surprise. I love ships that can dodge fire, but there are few in the game and I still wish frigates were more useful in the late game / in large battles.
