Ships stay down once sunk.
No dot radar is available -- only sector counters.
Ammo Bunkers, Fighter Hangars, and Vehicle Hangars stay down 1 minute.

I left a message on the Claim Jumper Boards.  Hopefully they'll show up.  I plan on being there providing the minor surgery I will have a little later today doesn't prevent me from being there. :salute

I plan on being there, pending any crisis or something that would otherwise prevent me. I'm glad to see this event still running 4 years after the inaguration of it!
