Museums. Reserves. Bone yards. They all provided weapons that we used when The War came upon us all. The Peloran fabricators allowed us to rebuild any weapon, any ship, any tank no matter how old into a modern design that could fight toe to toe with any of our newest ships. And of course that meant we made sure to make all those refitted designs look just like their older brethren so our enemies would never know what exactly they were facing. We won more than one battle by deploying weapons or ships that never would have survived an exchange of weapons fire. We played some mean bluffs.
