-The Way of the Failover is not so much an equipment module as it is an engineering style practiced by [[faction:the_free_state|Free State]] starship engineers. This method had evolved from the time-honored [[faction:freespacers|Freespacer]] tradition of 'grin and bear it' when it comes to traveling the galaxy. Rather than trying to block damage all together through the use of high precision powerful equipment, a Failover ship instead uses rugged, versatile, low-demand equipment designed to operate under the worst possible conditions or when heavily damaged. Failover ships are renowned for their ability to take catastrophic amounts of damage -- even so far as being cut clean in half -- while their remaining sections retain most of their original functionality. Unfortunately, the cost for this style of engineering is a shunning of both energy weapons and shielding technology; those who refuse to follow the doctrine of low-tech ingenuity over high-end equipment will find their ships won't have the same degree of longevity.+The Way of the Failover is not so much an equipment module as it is an engineering style practiced by [[faction:the_free_state|Free State]] starship engineers.
