 +===Independence Yards=== 
 +The FWA constructed a shipyard at Damper, which was brought online on 10.055 . It is the first military shipyard built outside of the 'big eight' and the second shipyard of any kind built outside of Q0. The FWA is not bound by the agreements that prevent the 'big eight' powers from building shipyards outside of Q1, so it is perfectly legal. It has constructed an interplanetary destroyer and a CVI. It is currently constructing a DDI and a CAI
