Obtaining a shipyard that was located awfully close to the frontlines of the Red War sounded anything but ideal.
However, the easy access to raw materials along with the other favorable conditions offered by the Octara Kingdom made up for this very obvious downside.
Another factor that earned his appreciation was that any orbital shipyard that received the 'royal' designation was definitely among the largest and most productive of its kind!
According to the fact sheet transmitted by Duke Elijah von Reevus, the specific shipyard that the Octarans were willing to 'gift' to Ves was capable of constructing capital ships up to a maximum length of around 3 kilometers!
That was a huge luxury as first-class capital ships were always impressive.
