As the attacking force withdraws, the battle area becomes eerily quiet, with only the cracking sound of ships burining. Rescue ships are deployed immediately, whilst several Kobyashi Maru class salvage ships begin the laborious task of retrieving sunken warships, while salvage tugs begin to tow crippled warships back to the dockyards for repairs. The few combat ready ships still available guard the salvage operations, and a replenisher heads for the Defense Platform to restock its missiles.
