Host Jeff says:
The crew of Avalon Station, after a pleasant rest after the end of the Doman Refugee Crisis, is preparing to resume normal operations.  The Combat Services Tender CST Cheyenne will be arriving shortly to replace the mobile weapons platform, install a new sensor array and environmental primary grid, and a certain special adjustment known only to their crew.  Meanwhile the crew is on a rotating duty schedule as they continue to monitor t
