Updated for Free Lanes and PS5. --All Scythes now drop Quantum Essence when defeated (NOT boarding).
This is a content patch for Exigent Circumstances: Starborn This mods gives you the option to have the Forsaken invade the fleets of enemy factions, making for extremely challenging space combat. The Forsaken Scythe is a Starborn variant, like Scimitar, and almost as powerful as Scimitar.
What makes these battles, outside of the raw difficulty of the Scythe, is that you can now board and takeover this Starborn variant, if you dare! The Forsaken Scythe has an extremely powerful Forsaken Starborn onboard, and each ship has its own AI Robot crew member...these robots have all the powers and abilities of an actual Forsaken enemy!
If that isn't enough of a challenge, each Scythe has 6 extremely powerful particle turrets onboard, that can kill even the most powerful Starborn in a matter of seconds.
After defeating the turrets, the Forsaken, and the Ship's pilot robot, you can claim the Scythe variant for yourself, to sell, or to add to your fleet. Because these ships are not usable by non Starborn, selling them to ship services will give you very little...BUT if you happen to have a way to salvage these ships, the payoff can be quite high!
The number of Forsaken Scythe variants can be controlled via game play options, from 1-6 total (giving increased experience!). Be careful though, without a fleet to watch your back, having a random encounter with 2 Scythes is extremely difficult, and if you encounter 3, it is almost certain death. Of course, the ship variants you find in space can be completely random, but with more Forsaken ships in the pool, the more likely these difficult encounters become.

Brigs. Your ship has them, you can't use them. But why? I don't know. Cut content? Future content? Perchance. Useful Brigs aims to make brigs, well... useful.
