PPE Phase 1 consists of an identification process on ships which are nearing obsolescence in the Generation V battlespace. Consult the newly named V7.0 PPE forums for examples of pointing these vessels out.

Ships identified as such will then be either put through a refit and modernisation process or replaced in role with more capable classes.

The creation of new ship variants is also allowed, on the condition that the ship model and the weapon files of PDS v7.0 are not altered unless made necessary due to fire control system modifications.

An example of this is the equivalent of a WW2 anti aircraft cruiser - the Arbiter IV escort cruiser with 12 140mm SRACs intended to counter the threat of modern heavy attack craft. This variant was proposed by Thorin.

In addition, pending further consultation with a representative of the Dust Wars HW2 mod team, a forum for ship auctioning may be created.
