Outcasts and nomguns - Mímir - 08-12-2012
Hi I have been thinking with the recent change in the techchart so the LSF/MND/BIS etc. can use the nomguns, why can't the Nomad-hugging Outcasts? Especially considering the other Sabre-flying occupants in the Outcasts' neighbourhood.
It's not that I am particularly intersted in using them, I just think it could add some RP-flavour and it seems like an irregularity on the tech-chart, now that other factions besides The Order can use them.*
*I know the RP-reasoning is technological appropriation/reverse engineering/lala of the weapons carried out by resource-rich bureaus of government, but with the Outcasts being somewhat intelligent, having an unhealthy interest in everything Nomad AND having the squids on their friendly side (not to mention housing other groups who exists in the mod, but I guess not in RP), surely they must have been able to do the same.

Jameson tried organising something like that and Yuri screwed him.
Short version is that there was already the RP set up for Outcasts to have Nomad guns and nothing happened with it.

So how to get them?
Bump the devs/admins/etc.?
Or set up some sort of RP regarding it?

Get the 101st to request it in the current techmix request thread (for official factions).
Supporting roleplay by the 101st, or by indies working with them, is likely to be a good idea.

Krakens are better. if the 101st requests it I will sign off on it in the positive but ONLY for the 101st and those with an rp connection to have the guns

Probably ought to restrict them to a sub-faction ID, just like the houses have to do

It doesn't even make sense for human ships to be able to mount alien weapons that are essentially biological laser cannons.
Outcasts and nomguns - Mímir - 08-13-2012
I think the idea is that the mountable guns are human creations harnessing Nomad power.

Considering they require reverse-engineering nomad remains, I'd say this would be sacrilege.
