In preparation for building her first tech II ships Marg has made enough Tech I ships.

Tech II ships are better more powerful versions of tech I ships. Two parts of the tech I ship production are needed to build tech II ships. For one you need to take a tech I version of a ship's blueprint and then you must "invent" a tech II blueprint copy.This copy only produces one run and thus only one tech II ship. You do this invention using some datacores specific to that blueprint such as Amarr Starship Engineering Datacores and Mechanical Engineering Datacores. You also need an Amarr Starship Encruption Device. Then you need the skills of Amarr Starship Engineering and Amarr Encryption. The last requirement is a lab from where to invent the blueprint copy. Marg's corporation provides her with these needed items. The invention is started with copies of the tech I blueprint. After you have the tech II blueprint, the second needed part of a tech I ship manufacture is that you need a Tech I ship. You also then need tech II ships components and some more minerals.

Today Marg focused on building enough tech I Amarr ships for all the tech II blue prints she has invented in the last month or so. The day before this she bought Amarr specific ship component blueprints so she can build the components for these tech II ships.
