Canon wise, what known derelicts are floating around space circa 3025. I count two thus far.

FSS Pleiades - This New Syrtis class Carrier was retired in the Novaya Zemlya system during the Second Succession War after having its back broken by a return jump. (Historical: Reunification War pg. 220)

DCS Togura - This Samarkand class Carrier was the only one of its kind to survive to present and barely serves as a museum piece orbiting New Samarkand. (Technical Readout: 3075 pg. 216)

Just wanted to post this as food for thought. These two derelicts are clearly beyond salvage but did survive to 3025 and beyond. Pretty interesting to me and indicates there could be other space wrecks floating around out there.

Also look at the Wob and ComStar fleets, they floated a bunch of beached whales to get thier little bandwagons rolling.

You know there is something wrong with the FWL, when Word's spell check changes Impavido to Impetigo and Zechetinu to Secretion.

I wasn't going to mention the "known" derelicts in this thread, hoping instead to save the surprise. Oh well, still it's good to hear some thoughts. I like the feedback.
