Matt634 was then swallowed up by witchspace and no proper license has ever been received to allow updating of this OXP and posting on the Expansions Manager. To do so would involved rewriting this OXP from scratch.

-This OXP also adds 14 individual [[Navy_SecCom_Station|Sector Command Military Stations]] to each galaxy in orbit around their home planets.  At SecCom stations a player may check incoming news, buy victory bonds to support the Navy, or sign up for reserve duty.  All pilots with at least a competent rating are eligible for reserve missions.  Players may track their status on the interactive Reserve Leaderboard.

 Finally, this OXP adds a one time Special Ops mission to Galaxy Six.  Players must be docked at a SecCom station and have flown at least 10 reserve sorties.  A save file is included for mission testers. There is a [[Galactic Navy Spec Ops Walkthrough|walkthrough]] where you can look for hints if you get stuck.

 The Galactic Navy OXP introduces a more visible [[Galactic_Navy|Galactic Navy]] presence to the Ooniverse.  Each galaxy now contains 14 individual Sector Commands with base systems and stations.  There are several new navy ships and navy patrols including  [[Navy_Carrier_Group|Navy Carrier Groups]], frigate patrols, and convoys.

-The real effect (unless you enlist and go for the missions) is on arrival at the Sector Command planets, which now have a major navy presence. Take Isinor, for example. Without this oxp, there is a good chance of getting scragged by pirates on arrival at the witchpoint. With this oxp, there is a better chance of seeing pirates being scragged by the Galactic Navy instead! The navy base also has a top notch shipyard doing excellent maintenance work and with a full range of equipment. Rather expensive, though!
