Finishing Last Year's Deals

During Alexander's visit to the administrative building, he also got to meet with some of the ship designers, who then eagerly showed him the various blueprints of the different kinds of ships they were building, all laid out over a grand, oak table. 

Following which they very excitedly went over how Alexander's idea had enabled them to build much bigger ships, emphasizing the size of the vessels and going over how revolutionary those were going to be, as they attempted to impress their top boss.

Alexander meanwhile nodded absentmindedly and played along, though his heart in reality wanted to build even bigger ones.

For instance, what the men were showing him were sketches of triremes and quadriremes, whereas other counterpart nations were already using decariremes.

Now, Alexander had asked if they would make him the latest models other nations were using, but unfortunately, it seemed that was beyond the engineers' capabilities at the moment.
