I’m super surprised no one on that thread talked about stealing an enemy corvette (lower case C) by way of an oopsy-doodle switcheroo self destruct, slingshotting around the sun back a couple of hundred years, stealing the largest mammals on their home planet in a tank the corvette was never meant to have, because ya know it’s basically an RV with some shotguns duct taped to the top (its name is spray painted on the side). Slingshot back around the sun to the exact millisecond they left.
And they land, perfectly, in water, right next to their home base.
That was a great read
