The main reading path now begins with [The Game](/Hold%20The%20Flood/The%20Game), follows [three expeditions](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Expedition%20Proposal), returns to [the people aboard](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Coming%20Home), and opens into [discovery in the changing station](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Connecting%20The%20Station). [Hordes and Builds](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Hordes%20and%20Builds) explains the current examples; [Build Comparison](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Build%20Comparison) presents alternative controls and payoffs for owner reaction.

Fourteen proposal or editorial packages completed review and response today: builds/expeditions, hospital story/survival, regular growth on a renewed route, a second route state after permanent source seals, the six-page reading path, the moving-scan expedition, the short-rescue comparison, the station-completion payoff, the campaign scope comparison, the language journal, the whole-campaign overview, the cast and rescue map, the equipment guide, and the Receiver Vault expedition. [Combat Rules](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Combat%20Rules) and the room/encounter references describe the two concrete route states. They preserve completed work while giving fresh opposition a physical route. Other seal combinations and shifted layouts remain design work.

The new Ricochet and Gravity mechanisms remain proposed replacements for parts of the detailed build rules. The [hospital-story alternatives](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Hospital%20Story%20Directions) remain revisable. Completed review does not select them for the owner or establish fun, balance or duration.

The [Receiver Vault Expedition](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Receiver%20Vault%20Expedition) completed review and response at **16:30**. It proposes a transformation earned by opening a firing angle during the horde, a banked-disc climax and an old hospital record acquiring a new meaning at the iris. A proposed shorter approach can deliver the first major transformation here; the established longer route retains its earlier reward. Ordinary equipment and partial progress remain options. Timing, useful banks, breathing margin and repeat-visit upgrade variety remain explicit design risks. Combat and encounter references now link the proposal and describe actual burst limits.

Systems submitted the [Combat And Enemy Roster](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Combat%20And%20Enemy%20Roster) at **16:26**, and its independent review is complete. Systems is completing one author response to clarify rescue eligibility, the carrying example and local wording. The guide begins with a mixed horde, then shows what pressure each creature creates and how the player can turn it around. It retains six ordinary roles, three specials, existing placements and two setpieces. The reviewed target is now **17:15** today, with its range on [Progress](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Progress).

The [Combat And Enemy Roster](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Combat%20And%20Enemy%20Roster) completed review, response and integration at **16:46**. It opens with a mixed horde, then introduces six ordinary creatures and three specials through visible warnings, pressure and useful responses. Existing placements and both setpieces remain. The rescue example now includes safe bypass and bodies still present after a door seals; the carrying example allows both finds when there is room. The two proposed roster cuts retain their different reasons.

## Working now: two trips, two different builds

Design support is developing two expeditions with the same physical equipment but different earned upgrade choices, including a useful hybrid. The first Echoing Arc versus Rebound Disc choice already exists; this proposal works through repeated offers, how earlier selections change later possibilities, and what each declined option would have bought. It will compare that freedom with the clearer teaching and lower production cost of a fixed ladder.

The author is working and an independent reviewer is preparing criteria. The draft target is **18:30** today and the reviewed proposal target is **19:45**, with plausible ranges on [Progress](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Progress). This develops a shared choice problem while keeping all three proposed build families available for owner reaction.
One focused critique and one response belong to each bounded outcome. The outside-edit preservation audit is complete and its factual follow-ups are published; broader readability and design readiness remain open. States and estimates are on [Progress](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Progress).
