Stuff to cover:

- You can transfer ships to the fleet
- If they are the elite kind, they will boost the officer
- You can spend science to directly level it up
- You can spend hacking points on a friendly planet to boost armor or weapon
- They don't gain strength with general science spend
- They cost a bunch of metal to repair if they get crippled?
- Lone wolf vs Officer

All ships cost a bunch of metal to repair after crippling, I think it's best to mention that at the start of the game that crippling costs 2x more than normal

Commander, we've captured what Research has named an 'Officer' class ship.

These specialized ships can be the core of our main fleet or specialized support depending on their specialty.

Unless listed as a "lone wolf", you can transfer ships from other fleets using the detailed fleet view. SOME_TEXT_HERE_TO_MAKE_C_SHOW_UP. This can include the elite ships from Fleet Research Stations, which will provide their bonus to the officer ship.

Just like other flagships, officer ships don't improve by spending science unlocking technology. However you can directly spend science in the detailed fleet view SOME_TEXT_HERE_TO_MAKE_C_SHOW_UP to level up its direct strength.

Many officer ships can be significantly improved with our hacking nanomachines as well. Move the ship to a friendly planet and check out the Hacks tab for details.

Be aware that this power doesn't come cheap. Officer class ships can have significant power usage and if they are crippled during battle will cost a massive amount of metal to repair.
