Turns 40-41. **No Audio** My apologies, audio failed on this recording. Upgraded ship designs for small protector and small attacker ships. After shipping all the population off the system, I scrapped all the structures at the Haroshem star system in preparation to vacate that star system. Completed the Dust to Dust quest (defeated a small pirate fleet). Queued up the remaining technologies in the 2nd tier of the research tree. For the election following turn 40, I decided to support the Ecologists (Intimidate Citizens), which turned out to be a complete failure and waste of 1350 influence (Scientist and Industrialist parties won the election). Assembling fleet at Vyrak star system and made an initial ground attack (minor victory). Assigned militarist quest hero Hadri Lenko to fleet at the BC-21 star system. Updated system build queues with new food upgrades. Progressing my faction quest.
