Upgrades

Base model ships can be upgraded to improve their attributes and specialize in various capabilities.

Additionally, each upgrade provides a token to claim a lore card.

The first step in upgrading a ship is to use a Template and Salvaged resources to build a Rigging Modules.

Templates are a reusable form of Schematics used to manufacture upgrade rigging.

The Rigging module can then be integrated into the ship to upgrade its Specialization and Grade Level.
