2ad6652eac AZ: correct the archived save's size, stage both states, and add the pre-loss turn-11 save
az-turn23-tarka-comraid.sav is 89,285 B not 73,385 (that number was the
turn-11 file's). Both saves are now on the guest as well as in the repo.
az-turn11-16destroyers.sav is the same game with the 16-destroyer fleet
still alive and Commerce Raiding already in hand - it saves ten turns of
play for anyone retrying the player's own raider, though the AI's first
routes do not appear until turn 16.

dde03ee6a6 AZ: the species gate has THREE conjuncts and the polarity is 0.0 - plus the first Tarka save
Static half, verified and correcting two published sentences:
FUN_00820af0 short-circuits on the ROUTE OWNER being Hiver (0x00820bc2),
on the RAIDER's crew species being Hiver (0x00820bd7), and only then on
SpeciesDef+0x144 (Human, Zuul). The campaign's 'Human or Zuul draws
nothing, every other species draws' is incomplete on both sides. And the
short-circuit sets frac = 0.0, not 1.0 - corrected in ag.json in place.

Live half NOT taken. hooks=off throughout; no instrument was armed. The
workload was built to within one conjunct: az-turn23-tarka-comraid.sav is
the corpus's first Tarka empire, has Commerce Raiding, three AI routes and
five AI Tarka fleets parked on sector nodes with Pos bit-equal, two of
which clear G0-G4. The failed conjunct is G_B3 - the qualifying raiders
own every route, so relation-to-self is 3 and B empties its candidate
list. The next workload is named from that: give player 0 a route sourced
in sector 768, where the AI raider already stands.

tscr reads 127 on this map, not 252/253 - the mask is not a corpus
constant and my own P3 gave the right count for the wrong reason.

1fecff8af0 AZ: predictions for the raid-intercept species word, committed before the build
The brief's gate ('Human or Zuul draws nothing, every other species draws')
is incomplete in two places, found by reading FUN_00820af0 before touching a
guest: species 1 (Hiver) short-circuits too, and the ROUTE OWNER's species is
a gate of its own. The species enum is read from the InitTable jump table as
bytes: 0 Human, 1 Hiver, 2 Tarkas, 3 Liir, 4 _NPC, 5 Zuul, 6 Morrigi.

Corpus counted against the predicate (rule 28 practice 5): 0 of 30. 24 saves
hold a Tarka AI - a drawing species - but tscr is 253 in every one, so the AI
has no Commerce Raiding and never rolls. The workload has to be built.

Tarkas chosen: the tech data gives it a 100% path to CCC_ComRaid via
CCC_FTLEcon, where Hiver has 0% on both edges.
