Glad you got a giggle out of it, Kelly.

The redzone warning arose out of a much uttered phrase in sci-fi games
with my mob - "heave to or prepare to be salvaged!".
Might shake things up with an ECM crew if they hear those actual words
from the TCN patrol corvette _Moredakka_ closing on a Collinson course.

Another favourite when mass-conversion warheads (fission, fusion,
antimatter, etc) are inbound, en route to initiation - "this'll bruise".
