Awesome! Really looking forward to the changes to retired and dead commanders! I have always wanted to give my commanders medals posthumously. You can imagine being some old Admiral who has been around since the start of your game, has a capital ship class named after them, a veteran of decades of campaigns against spoilers and NPRs alike. Responsible for writing half the tactical training manuals and two thirds of your doctrines. Finally you get some peace and quiet to grow tomatoes back home on Earth, or maybe you bought some land on one of those new colony planets that you helped to set up and protect. Just as you're getting ready for your second harvest, a bunch of uniformed officers show up asking for you to come back because this wormhole opened up and some new threat called Invaders came pouring out, hunting for ships to kill and planets to conquer. Earth needs their best Admiral to take charge once again!
