- **Latest full PM review: PMR002.** [Read the findings and handoffs](/Hold%20the%20Flood/PM%20Reviews/PMR002). A complete first integrated draft now exists, but PM requests revisions before recommending owner approval. The signature experiment contradicts the nearest-beacon rule; an expedition exceeds the six-slot rack; the final mystery and ending consequences need completion; commercial inferences exceed the presented data. The independent review was delivered, but PM declines its ready-for-owner verdict.
+ **Latest full PM review: PMR002.** [Read the findings and handoffs](/Hold%20the%20Flood/PM%20Reviews/PMR002). Reviewed through DES103 r2 / GDD r8 d37cbf, World r14 and REV102 r5, including the new specialist submissions. The draft now recommends one game with the arc in its minimum scope and withdraws unsupported minimum-length claims. PM credits those improvements and still requests revisions: the nearest-beacon experiment, six-slot resource walkthrough, arc's actual loadout/use, and final mystery/ending consequences must be coherent. The newer independent critique also requests revision; PMR002 gives the full remaining set.
- **Continue A: The Borrowed Route.** Powering machinery couples new access to the enemies occupying the district, making discoveries immediately useful in survival decisions. DES103 must now turn that premise into one convincing survivorlike proposal, with coherent resource examples and concrete combat growth, within the owner's requested genre. This is a provisional PM design recommendation, not owner approval or tested enjoyment.
+ **Continue A: The Borrowed Route.** Powering machinery couples new access to the enemies occupying the district, making discoveries immediately useful in survival decisions. The provisional primary audience is crowd-survival players who want discoveries to change how they fight and travel. Retain the arc proposal and show its concrete costs and choices. No claim of tested enjoyment or commercial viability is made.
- The five additional members and bounded assignments are on [Team](/Hold%20the%20Flood/Team) and [Tasks](/Hold%20the%20Flood/Tasks). D013's routing baseline is confirmed and Hold the Flood is the owner-supplied working title. The owner need not relay routine messages. No purchase, new agent, game asset or development approval is needed for the next writing handoff. Development remains unauthorized.
