Hi guys,

bizarre question ...

I have a treaty, let's say Klg/Fed.

My Klg ship is carrying a Fed shuttle. My treaty gets destroyed.
Now the shuttle is in 'house arrest', right?

What exactly does that mean for a ship being carried?
That it cannot be launched?
Can personnel aboard that carried (!) ship still use their skills?

Hmm, interesting, all the House Arrest rules only refer to personnel, not ships or other cards. I don't think the rules specifically describe what would happen here. My instinct would be if the ship can no longer legally be carried on the other ship (which could happen if the card allowing them to be carried gets discarded, also), the smaller ship would either have to immediately leave the carrier, or it can stay but not reboard if it does leave.

The personnel, on the other hand, I think are more clearly in HA, since:
Rulebook wrote:Personnel aboard a carried ship are also part of the crew of the carrying ship, or are intruders if the carrying ship is controlled by a different player.
So the personnel on the shuttle would still be on the carrying ship, and therefore would be put in HA if they're no longer compatible.

I think the ship is stuck there. The rules don't say that you should do something, so... you've got an off-color ship stuck that you can't drive anymore. And the personnel can't be on board it (because as Vi pointed out you can't park personnel on board a carried ship), so they'll be in house arrest and thus disabled.
