F2.10: rescue comparison ready for owner choice; station completion working

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.

Six proposal 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, and the moving-scan 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.

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.

## Working in parallel: rescue and the final connection
-
Systems is preparing one short crossing where the astronaut's movement and build buy time for a survivor's voluntary action, followed by a specific homecoming. The same scene will compare the proposed protected retreat with a simpler alternative at the moment the astronaut dies. The owner can judge the stakes, preparation burden and effect on the shifting-station premise. Neither survivor mortality nor the first survivor is selected by this comparison.

[Rescue Under Pressure](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Rescue%20Under%20Pressure) is now a reviewed comparison: the astronaut’s movement and build earn a short crossing for Yeva, followed by a specific homecoming. It compares a protected retreat with completing the crossing after the astronaut dies. The owner can judge the stakes, preparation burden and effect on the shifting-station premise. Neither survivor mortality nor the first survivor is selected by this comparison.

The rescue draft has received its single critique. Systems is clarifying physical clearance and living blockage during the crossing, together with the explicit protection used by both death approaches.
+
The single critique and response are complete. The proposal now makes physical clearance, living blockage and both death-protection windows explicit. The owner is considering whether the survivor should finish or take shelter; shared rescue rules remain unchanged. Systems is stopped after submission.
Temporary design support is independently preparing two consequences of completing the whole station. Each must show the final act, the next home visit and expedition, and what lasting connected geography means for further discovery and hordes. Neither an ending nor a final effect is selected.
